I was in the Coopers Arms in Burton yesterday and the landlady was due to leave the next day to run the Craven Arms. The Coopers is getting new, currently unknown people next month. I've no idea how good or bad this is for either pub. It gives me an excuse to revisit both although I'm not that keen on visiting Brum although I'm sure I could get over it!
The landlady of the Coopers is taking two very friendly dogs with her.
