Market Tavern, Birmingham (Dog & Partridge)

UPDATE 2010.


Closed and now used as a studio.

The description before it closed is shown below. 



 A most impressive, corner site tile and terracotta pub built 1899-1900 and typical of others in the area. Tiled corridor on the left. L-shaped public bar (note the unusual fixed seating with horizontal slats). Original bar counter and bar-back, the latter topped with a balustrade (cf. the White Swan): wall tiling, including a pretty frieze to the same pattern as that at the White Swan. Rear smoke room with fixed seating. Impressive tiled stairway hall. There appears to be what was an off-sales corridor leading off the side road. Currently closed with no indications as to its future, although the interior appears so far to be undisturbed.
