Cockersdale is a folk music singing group from West Yorkshire, England, founded by Keith Marsden of Morley (died 1991) and revived after his death.[1]

Their albums include Doin' the Manch, recorded in 1988 and later reissued as a CD. The title song, written by Keith Marsden, refers to a pub crawl round the 27 or 28 pubs in Manchester Road, Bradford: "The Manch".[2]
