The Robin Hood (1), 196-200 Collis Street, Amblecote, Stourbridge
A popular pub with a claim to fame, as it was the first pub to receive a delivery of a cask of the wonderful Enville Ales, when the brewery opened in 1993. The bunting outside was probably connected with the Euro 2012 football matches, and the recent celebration of H.M. Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee.

The Robin Hood (2) - sign, 196-200 Collis Street, Amblecote, Stourbridge
The sign instead of having the usual picture showing the famous outlaw Robin Hood depicts a tree, presumably in Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire. This is the place most often linked with Robin Hood, but he has also been placed in Yorkshire and elsewhere.

The Swan (1), 10 Brettell Lane, Amblecote, Stourbridge
One of the surviving public houses in Brettell Lane. This one would appear to have once been a coaching inn. There used to be several more public houses along here including, to confuse matters, another one called The Swan on the same side of the road as this one. It had that name from when it opened in the mid-1800's until 1897, when it became the Builders Arms. It ceased trading in 1937. The surviving Swan should not be confused either with the Swan in Hagley Road, in Stourbridge's town centre, which is also still in business.

The Swan (2) - sign, 10 Brettell Lane, Amblecote, Stourbridge
In times past when many people couldn't read, inn and pub signs needed to contain a subject that was easy to illustrate and to recognise. The swan or often the white swan became a popular name as a result. It was also associated with innocence and with royalty.
