Cross Keys Inn Uppermill

Built originally in 1745, and situated on the old Marsden packhorse
route, the Cross Keys Inn is located just off Church Road to the east of Uppermill.
It first opened as a tavern back in 1763 and today the pub is owned by J.W.Lees Brewery Link

The pub is a popular stop off for dog walkers, hikers and mountain bikers.

The building on the right with the green doors is called the barn
which is the home of the Oldham Mountain Rescue Team which was formed in 1964
and is just one of around 53 teams of volunteers providing a search and rescue
service prepared to help people in difficulties
in the wild and remote places of the UK.
In 2008 the Oldham Mountain Rescue Team had 44 callouts
to help 41 casualties which needed 1,778 man hours of rescue activity Link
