Known to locals as Tinky's this place could be a museum. It hasn't changed since the 1940's and is a great place to visit. Camra love the place the pub was granted Grade II listing in 1996 for its interior. It is also included in CAMRA's National UK Inventory, an important register of unspoilt pubs which retain their original layout and fittings. This virtually unaltered three-roomed pub is part of a row of terraced houses opposite Bloxwich Park. There are no gaming machines or bandits and only occasional background music providing a rare example of the authentic character of pubs of yesteryear. It has been owned by the same family for 130 years, thus resisting the vandalism of so-called 'pub designers'. Unique features include wooden slatted benches in the public bar, with a large diameter heating pipe running beneath, and unusual armrests on the benches in the smoke room. You must visit this place - it serves great real ale too. read more
