The pub was at the bottom of Charles Street and is now a house.
​
Named after the charitable Oddfellow Society that had a number of members in the town since the lodge was formed in 1839.
Census information shows that the landlords of this pub also operated as coal merchants.
​
In 1877 an advertisement in the Cheadle Herald stated that first class Brawn (jellied pigs head) was kept at
William Eaton’s Oddfellow Arms.
​
An auction plan from 1905, marks the location of the Oddfellow Arms and indicates it was owned by Peter Walker and Son Ltd.
​
The pub closed in 1907, after it’s license failed to be renewed.
​
Later owners of the property were coal merchants, just as some licensees had been.
