I think it's actually in the adjoining leisure centre. Don't expect to see many Sikhs, because they'll all be hiding. (Hiding Sikhs - geddit!!)

Hah hah a latent comedian. Maybe I should put you down for the stage in Oxenhope shed on Friday evening!

Regarding Oxenhope, but not the festival, can you please tell me of some local pubs that are open daily? When in West Yorks, we often walk the loop from Haworth over the tops to Oxenhope, then along the tracks and river back to Haworth. We used to trudge up the hill to the Wagon and Hosses, but since the brewer left (a few years ago) it's not worth the trudge. But else, the few pubs we come across down in the village seem mostly shut. Keep thinking we ought find a pub by the station, but no luck.

Can you help??? It's a long walk back to Haworth without a brew.

Would love to, but I can't afford the entrance fee!
