The cracking village pub only 30 minutes from Manchester that many feared was lost for good

Offering unrivalled views of the Tame Valley and the Peak District, the beautiful, though slightly hilly, village of Dobcross is a must-visit for visitors to Saddleworth. With its picture-perfect setting and rich history it’s clear to see why its popularity is so enduring.
The tight-knit village truly comes alive though during big annual occasions like the Whit Friday brass band contests and the Yanks festival. The latter pays homage to the 1979 film, which starred Richard Gere and Vanessa Redgrave and featured scenes filmed in Dobcross.
One building whose essence was captured perfectly on the film is The Swann Inn, the pub at the heart of the village square. The Grade II-listed building dates back as far as 1765 and is one of two pubs in the village, alongside The Navigation Inn.

After the pub failed to reopen after lockdown, many worried it might never return, but Sharon Musgrove, a Dobcross resident of nearly 30 years, saved the day and in late 2020 took over the pub. With a background in wealth management, Sharon gave up her career to become a publican, motivated by her strong sense of community.
Speaking at the time she took over the pub, Sharon said: “It is my desire to get The Swan Inn back to its former glory as a family pub and restore it to its rightful position at the heart of the community as the place to eat, drink and experience the very best of good old English hospitality.”
Packed with history and character, it’s clear to see why Sharon is so passionate about her local. Fans of old school pubs will be happy to see the original deed - signed by the first landlord - still hanging on
