A slate has slipped
One slip may be local; repeated movement points towards the fixings.
Bolton's older roofs often combine stonework, slate and chimneys
Historic England records a number of early and mid-nineteenth-century Bolton terraces with coursed stone walls and slate roofs. Examples include Park Row at Eagley Bank, Birley Street, Gaskell Street and housing around Halliwell Road.
That matters where replacement slates, leadwork and masonry repairs meet. It does not make every old roof complicated, but it does mean the existing construction should be understood before modern materials are forced into it.
