This week on This is Rammy, I chatted with with Charlotte, owner and resident of The Grant Arms Hotel.

The Grant is one of the most noticeable buildings in Ramsbottom. Originally called “Top Oth Brow”, once a private house, it was then bought by the Grant family who renamed it to Grant Lodge.

In 1828 the house became a hotel, even undergoing a facelift in 1852 where a clock was added to the front of the building and adorned with that date.

Molly Bloom at Buchanan

What do you get when you cross a Flute and Classical Guitar with a Drum and a Bass? Molly Bloom of course!

You can see Molly Bloom live at Buchanan Social Club in Ramsbottom on May the 1st.

So, if you like your music a bit harder than most, you’ll be glad to know not only is Molly Bloom performing, but in total there are three acts performing at Buchanan Sports and Social Club in Ramsbottom that should rock your proverbial.

Molly Bloom are being supported by Ten Foot Wizard and PIST, all pretty local bands who have similar sounding music. Essentially, if you like one, you’re almost certain to like the others. One track of Molly Blooms I particularly from their All Pressure album is Run if you want to, in which the video also features imagery from Scooby Doo, who wouldn’t like that?!

The doors open at 7pm on the 1st of May and entrance price is £5 per ticket.
