A PROPER PLACE
TO SHOOT. — About Clough Head Clay Shoot
Countryside on the doorstep. A warm welcome at the ground. And a few challenges waiting on the stands.
Welcome to Clough Head
The hills make it different.
Clough Head's distinctive countryside setting is a big part of the experience.
Based near Todmorden, close to Bacup and Rossendale, Clough Head offers a countryside alternative for visitors planning a day from Greater Manchester. The former-quarry setting gives the ground its distinctive character.
Explore the sport in our Clay Shooting Guides, from the first questions through to formats and competitions.
The ground brings together regular shooting on published dates, beginner sessions arranged around weekend events, and private group days agreed with the business. Monthly competitions are planned, and the Boxing Day Special Shoot is on 26 December.
