Hitchmough's Black Country Pubs HITCHMOUGH’S BLACK COUNTRY PUBS BRIERLEY HILL (Inc. Pensnett, Quarry Bank, Round Oak) 3rd. Edition - © 2015 Tony Hitchmough. All Rights Reserved www.longpull.co.uk INTRODUCTION Well over 40 years ago, I began to notice that the English public house was more than just a building in which people drank. The customers talked and played, held trips and meetings, the licensees had their own stories, and the buildings had experienced many changes. These thoughts spurred me on to find out more. Obviously I had to restrict my field; Black Country pubs became my theme, because that is where I lived and worked. Many of the pubs I remembered from the late 1960’s, when I was legally allowed to drink in them, had disappeared or were in the process of doing so. My plan was to collect any information I could from any sources available. Around that time the Black Country Bugle first appeared; I have never missed an issue, and have found the contents and letters invaluable. I then started to visit the archives of the Black Country boroughs. Directories were another invaluable source for licensees’ names, enabling me to build up lists. The censuses, church registers and licensing minutes for some areas, also were consulted. Newspaper articles provided many items of human interest (eg. inquests, crimes, civic matters, industrial relations), which would be of value not only to a pub historian, but to local and social historians and genealogists alike. With the advances in technology in mind, I decided the opportunity of releasing my entire archive digitally, rather than mere selections as magazine articles or as a book, was too good to miss. This would allow those people with interests, such as mentioned above, to search for relevant innformation. (sic) The files contain information about every pub that has been found to exist in each of the districts within the Black Country, along with a number of illustrations. Originally a series of 3 CDs was for sale, covering the Black Country boroughs. After 2 editions of each CD I am now producing individual files for each township sub-area. These files are available for free download by anyone interested. A number of years have passed since the first CD came out. In that time I have looked at a lot more sources of information (discovering some new old pubs), acquired many more photographs, and made many helpful friends. Thanks to the many people such as Denis Harper and Keith Hodgkins, who have allowed their own photographs to be used. In 2010 I was asked by the relatives of the late John V. Richards to sort through his own archive of material, in order to redistribute it to appropriate groups. This has been very useful in confirming, and providing new, information. I have also been asked to disseminate information gathered by Jim Laws, Wolverhampton CAMRA’s pub preservation officer/pub historian, who is unfortunately incapacitated. I hope you find this file useful. Please, if you can, show your appreciation by contributing information or photographs. If you feel so inclined you can even make a donation via the downloads page on the website to help defray our expenses. The work, as ever, continues. Tony Hitchmough September 2015 With many thanks to the 'back office': Janet, Sam and Gavin. Hitchmough Quaffs DISTRICTS The districts covered by the CDs were generally based on the modern places created in the 1970’s, ie, Sandwell, Dudley, Walsall and Wolverhampton. These are then subdivided into the old townships which had existed for many years previous, and are as follows:- SANDWELL Oldbury (inc. Causeway Green, Langley, Oakham, Rounds Green, Tividale) Rowley Regis (inc. Blackheath, Cradley Heath, Old Hill, Whiteheath) Smethwick (inc. Bearwood, Londonderry, Warley) Tipton (inc. Dudley Port, Great Bridge, Princes End, Toll End) Wednesbury (inc. Kings Hill, Leabrook, Mesty Croft) West Bromwich (inc. Golds Green, Greets Green, Hill Top, Lyndon) DUDLEY Brierley Hill (inc. Pensnett, Quarry Bank, Round Oak) Dudley (inc. Harts Hill, Kates Hill, Priory, Woodside) Halesowen (inc. Colley Gate, Cradley, Hasbury, Lapal) Kingswinford (inc. Himley, Wall Heath) Netherton (inc. Darby End, Dudley Wood, Saltwells, Windmill End) Sedgley (inc. Coseley, The Gornals, Woodsetton) Stourbridge (inc. Amblecote, Lye, Wollaston, Wollescote, Wordsley) WALSALL & WOLVERHAMPTON Bilston (inc. Bradley, Hallfields) Darlaston (inc. Butcroft, Moxley, Wood’s Bank) Walsall (inc. Bloxwich, Leamore, Palfrey, Pelsall, Rushall, Shelfield, Walsall Wood) Wednesfield (inc. Ashmore Park, Fallings Park, Heath Town, Moseley Village, Park Village, Wood End) Willenhall (inc. Bentley, New Invention, Portobello, Short Heath) Wolverhampton (inc. Blakenhall, Codsall, Oxley, Penn, Tettenhall, Whitmore Reans UPDATES I am planning to continue my researches, and will be producing updated versions of each file (for free download) as sufficient additional content is found. Hopefully new old pubs will continue to be discovered, as will some mysteries be cleared up. I maintain an Update service on the website to advise of pub discoveries made during the interim between releases. If anyone is able to provide extra, relevant information and / or pictures, about any of the pubs and people contained within this work, I would be grateful to hear from you, initially by e-mail at: [email protected] I look forward to hearing from you.

  • Precious Nonsense NEWSLETTER of the MIDWESTERN GILBERT and SULLIVAN SOCIETY November 1995 -- Issue 46
    Precious Nonsense NEWSLETTER OF THE MIDWESTERN GILBERT AND SULLIVAN SOCIETY November 1995 -- Issue 46 As is invariably the case, it's been one thing after another lately. Thanks to Michaem Miano and Carol Lee Cole, we have something ready-made to put in the Nonsense. Once things cool slow down at work, S/A Cole will have time to go through the piles of material, and put out a full-blown issue. Michael Miano and Carol Lee Cole both submitted their pieces in computer-readable form, and they appear here as they were submitted (I may spell-check them, but that'll be about it). While the Nonsense doesn't necessarily stand for an unrestricted press, its editorial staff certainly believes in letting people express their opinions. And if readers want to debate points, that's great. S/A Cole will be happy to forward messages. Anyway, it ought to make for interesting reading. Sarah Cole thanks all the membership of the Midwestern Gilbert and Sullivan Society for their patience over the last two years; and especially thanks the other G&S societies, who have been tremendously indulgent with the MGS's difficulties. We hope to return the kindness some day. In the meantime, here's what we've got. Oh Members, How Say You, What Is it You've The 1995 MGS Big Quiz Answers Done?

    NEWSLETTER OF THE MIDWESTERN GILBERT AND SULLIVAN SOCIETY September 1990 -- Issue 27 But the night has been long, Ditto, Ditto my song, And thank goodness they're both of 'em over! It isn't so much that the night was long, but that the Summer was (or wasn't, as the case may be). This was not one of S/A Cole's better seasons: in June, her family moved to Central Illinois; in July, the computer had a head crash that took until August to fix, and in that month, she was tired and sick from all the summer excitement. But, tush, I am puling. Now that Autumn is nearly here, things are getting back to normal (such as that is). Since there was no summer Nonsense, there is all kinds of stuff in this issue, including the answers to the Big Quiz, an extended "Where Can it Be?/The G&S Shopper", reports on the Sullivan Festival and MGS Annual Outing, and an analysis of Thomas Stone's The Savoyards' Patience. Let's see what's new. First of all, we owe the Savoy-Aires an apology. Oh, Members, How Say You, S/A Cole had sincerely believed that an issue of the What is it You've Done? Nonsense would be out in time to promote their summer production of Yeomen. As we know now, Member David Michaels appeared as the "First no Nonsense came out, and the May one didn't even Yeomen" in the Savoy-Aires' recent production of mention their address. Well, we're going to start to The Yeomen of the Guard.

Retired pastor Bob Price officiated, Sqd Ldr Craig O’Donnell read the poem High Flight; MACR Pete Holt did flag duty, and Sqd Ldr Barnes placed the wreath. Long-time volunteer Judy Hollis read the poem Ode of Remembrance. Refreshments were served at the Museum after the service. (Photos provided by Museum volunteer Paul Finnegan) 2 Recent Visitors The Dallas Arms Collectors Association (DACA) enjoyed a day-long excursion visiting local WWII and military museums. The highlight of the day was its conclusion at the No 1 BFTS Museum. Donations Mrs. Elaine Sherman of the Roemisch Foundation made a donation to the Museum in honor of her late husband, Flt Lt Francis G. H. “Ted” Sherman, RAFVR. Mr. Sherman was one of two men who were tasked with the disposition of British property, and closing the No. 1 BFTS at the end of WWII. 3 In Remembrance Jeffery Heard 4th June 1925 – 15th May 2016 Jeffery Heard – “Jeff” – was born on 4th June 1925 and grew up in Buckhurst Hill, Essex, England.
