It’s just five minutes from Jn 22 of the M62 and the inn is a real treasure, more than 450 years old and packed with memorabilia as well as stoves & log fires in every room.

First visit to the Rams Head and definitely won’t be our last. Service throughout was excellent and the food was brilliant. A wide range of choice and we went in December when they have a select festive range on offer. They had some special deals on the night which we took advantage of, but even without the price for the quality was excellent.
