I can't believe I haven't posted anything for this pub before. I thought I had, but I can't find an entry for it. I have been here a few times, since it is right in the centre of Denshaw village, which is the start or end point for a lot of my walks in the Pennines. The building dates from the 18th century and was originally a coaching inn at the junction of toll roads running between Oldham, Huddersfield, Rochdale and Ripponden. These days it is a rather upmarket restaurant pub with a lot of original features inside.
UPDATE 2021: There is still a car park at the back but the bus route has changed, now it's the 356 Oldham to Ashton-under-Lyne that passes the pub, runs every hour. Due to the pandemic restrictions, it now has more tables outside at the front of the building. Otherwise, it's as pleasant and relaxing as ever.
