Fitton Hill is a large housing estate in the town of Oldham in Greater Manchester, contiguous with Hathershaw and Bardsley.

Lying 2 miles south of Oldham town centre, the Fitton Hill estate was built during the 1950s and 1960s on previously undeveloped moorland with scattered hamlets and farmsteads. The layout of the estate obliterated all traces of the old landscape.[1]

Two churches serve the area, the Roman Catholic church of Holy Rosary and St Cuthbert's, Church of England.[2][3] The Holy Rosary, opened in 1955, contains a significant mural by Georg Mayer-Marton.[4]

Three primary schools serve the area, Medlock Valley Community School, St Martin's School and Holy Rosary RC Primary. See List of schools in Oldham.
