Army Convoy in Dobcross

On the second weekend of August every year there is a wartime weekend event in Saddleworth Link

Over the weekend there are various events throughout the area.
On the Sunday one of the biggest convoys of wartime vehicles makes its away around Saddleworth passing through
the villages of Uppermill, Delph, Standedge, Diggle, Dobcross and back to Uppermill.
If the weather is good the event brings the crowds out who line the route through the all villages.
In the photograph above the convoy makes its way through the centre of Dobcross.
