A family friendly pub located just outside the centre of the thriving town of Marple, located close to fantastic walks along the canal side. We offer a large range of well-kept ales, lagers & spirits.
The Navigation is a historic public House dating from around 1790. Function rooms upstairs are perfect for a private meeting right through to a large family celebration. It’s also the perfect location for walkers in the area. The Navigation aims to put back the public in public house. It started by serving the ‘navvy’s’ or Navigation Engineers that built the Peak Forest Navigation, known today as the Peak Forest Canal, part of the Cheshire ring.
