A customer enjoying some sunshine and relaxation on the Upper Gough Street side of “The Craven Arms”. This Grade II-listed property is thought to have existed before 1838. It seems that the business was acquired by Holders Brewery in 1906 when, amongst other changes, the external tiling was put up. It has been in the hands of Black Country Ales since 2013. Although it looks to be situated in glorious isolation it is in fact close to the Gas Street (canal) basin, a popular tourist area, and The Mail Box office block complex.
