The Woodman stood at No.684 Manchester Road in Hollinwood, just inside the M60 ring road. Although the aerial shot on Google Maps shows the pub still standing, it closed a few years ago and has been demolished recently.

The Indian restaurant next door stands alone on this stretch of the A62, with JE Lees' Woodman Inn already a memory.

It was at the Woodman that the Failsworth Blues MCFC supporters club started up in 1978, the landlord and lady, Pat and Win Power, being the father of City's Paul Power [1].
