A popular pub that has in the last couple of years or so undergone a makeover, and has also dropped the word Inn from its name. In Kelly's Directory of Worcestershire 1892, it is shown as The Greyhound public house with Mrs Ellen Guest as the licensee. It's not named in the Post Office directory of 1850, but there is a William Guest listed as a beer retailer at The Rock (part of Bromsgrove), so maybe it is the same pub and family. Update:- Sadly this pub was demolished in July 2022. The site has been earmarked for a small housing development and part will be used for a traffic island. Image
