Stone pub in a pleasant hamlet near the Standedge Canal Tunnel under the Pennines. Built as a merchant's house in 1789, it became an ale house and general store on the construction of the nearby railway tunnel in 1834. Affording fine views of the Saddleworth countryside, this makes a convenient base in a popular walking area. The pub was totally revamped in 2013 with open fires and a Yorkshire Range and has a bar area and two rooms. Beer garden area has been extended with a covered section and a small outdoor bar. Reopened July 2026.
