Hamlet in Greater Manchester, England
Shuttleworth is a hamlet at the northeastern extremity of the Metropolitan Borough of Bury, in Greater Manchester, England. It lies amongst the South Pennines, north of Bury and south of Edenfield; Scout Moor Wind Farm lies to the immediate east. Effectively a suburb of Ramsbottom, the M66 motorway divides Shuttleworth from the main core of that town.
Historically a part of Lancashire, the name Shuttleworth derives from the Old English "scyttels" and "worth" meaning a gated enclosure. The first element refers to a bar. It was documented as Suttelsworth in 1227 and Shuttelesworthe in 1296. 
From the Middle Ages, Shuttleworth lay within the township of Walmersley (sometimes called Walmersley-cum-Shuttleworth) in the ancient parish of Bury, and hundred of Salford. Walmersley-cum-Shuttleworth was made a civil parish in 1866. From 1883 the Shuttleworth area was administered as part the local government district of Ramsbottom, with the parish boundary between Walmersley-cum-Shuttleworth and Ramsbottom being adjusted to match the local government district boundary in 1894.
Shuttleworth is bounded to the south by Holcombe Brook and Summerseat; to the north by Edenfield, Irwell Vale; to the west by Holcombe and Ramsbottom and to the east by Stubbins, Turn Village and Shuttleworth-cum-Turn.
In the 1990s, Manchester drag queen Foo Foo Lammar lived in Shuttleworth.
