The Mossley borough boundary crosses the main road (A635) here. The lane coming down from the left is Calf Lane. This is where the Roaches terminus of the SHMD trams (Stalybridge, Hyde, Mossley & Dukinfield Tramways & Electricity Board) was situated. The lodge is a former toll house erected by the Ridgehill, Lanes & Holehouse Turnpike Trust.
