City-centre pub located in one of the oldest buildings in Wolverhampton.

A friendly, traditional, real ale pub converted from offices by Black Country Traditional Inns and opened in August 2012. It is one of the oldest timber-framed buildings in Wolverhampton, the Georgian frontage dating from 1726, while the timber-framed rear dates from circa 1500.

The bar is located down a short flight of stairs from street level with a function room available upstairs. A lift for people with disababilty gives access to all floors. A courtyard to the rear provides an outdoor seating area.

Four beers from Black Country Ales along with six changing guest beers, including two porters/stouts, and a real cider are served.

Cobs are available at lunchtime and customers may bring in their own food with plates and cutlery provided.

Historic Interest

One of the oldest buildings in the city centre - the Georgian frontage of the pub dates from 1726, whilst the timber framed part at the rear dates from about 1500.
