Seek & thou shalt find - the Navigation is not an obvious pub to find, but it is well worth the visit. It is located in the village of Calder Grove on the A636 Wakefield to Denby Dale Road (there is a sign on the main road, next to the TOTAL petrol station). Approached by a 'whale back' single track bridge (worth the visit in its own right), the Navigation is situated right on the Calder-Hebble Navigation, and gets some of its trade from boats that moor up outside. The walk on the canal bank, in either direction is recommended with two locks within a few hundred yards of the pub. There are very good facilities for children (no charge) both outside and inside (soft play & machines). Food is served at lunchtime throughout the year, and at tea-time during the summer only. There is a quiz at 9:30 on Wednesday nights with a gallon of beer for the winner. Outside gas heaters have recently been introduced so that you can stay outside next to the canal even longer at night!
