A four-square redbrick former coaching inn in the main street of this small market town.
The Eagle
A typical post-war pub on a housing estate on the north side of Walsall.
The Kite’s Nest
A white-painted pub with an unusual name in the fork of two roads on the south side of the town.
The Moss Tavern
A roadside pub just east of Droylsden town centre which now has the Metrolink running past it.
The Robin Hood
Once the town’s smartest hotel, it has been derelict since 1998 and is now scheduled for demolition. Note the illuminated neon sign just below the roofline.
The Angel
A double-fronted pub on a side street just west of the town centre, which I understand is soon to be reopened.
The Spotted Cow
A substantial stone-built inter-wars pub on the main Rochdale road to the west of the town, still displaying Bass livery.
The Greyhound
An attractive gabled pub on a corner site on the main Worcester Road to the south of the town. Still open on Streetview in July 2016.
The Alsager Arms
A substantial pub next to the station to the south of the town centre that has recently been demolished.
The Pudding & Pint
A typical West Midlands inter-wars suburban pub that StreetView shows as having been closed since at least 2009 and is now in a very sorry state.
The Little Bull
A modern mock-Tudor pub in the town centre that seems to have ended its days as a sports bar.
The Stamford Arms
A handsome mock-Tudor Edwardian roadhouse formerly tied to Whitbread. For many years it traded as a Beefeater, but in its latter days was rebranded as “Home”, as shown on the StreetView image. Not boarded up as such, but looking very sorry for itself now.
