The Starting Gate in Penn Fields, Wolverhampton
This new startup gin joint and ale house, which opened in July 2018, has not been helped by the onset of Covid-19 pandemic. I don't know about the gin, but Mark knows well how to keep ale in top condition. The Starting Gate has excellent reviews on-line.
The building is a former HSBC bank in Birches Barn Road.

The island, Penn Fields
When I was at junior school, this roundabout was always referred to simply as "the island", which was sufficient as such things are rare in Penn Fields. It is at the south end of Lea Road (centre), where that thoroughfare meets the B4161 (Stubbs Road to the east, Birches Barn Road to the west). Wolverhampton Corporation trolleybus (motorbus from 1963) route 4, from the town centre via Lea Road, turned in this junction. The present bus route serving this area continues from here to Warstones estate; buses have not terminated here for many years. The shops here exist only on one side of the junction, the parade beginning on Birches Barn Road (out of frame to the left) and continuing a little way along Jeffcock Road (off Lea Road behind the bus shelter).
