    That's a pretty good list,although I accept John's reservations, and I have visited 14 . I haven't attempted the Bermondsey Beer Mile which could help boost that number but it is lagging in the poll for the next PuG crawl......

    Impressive indeed.

    Otherwise, just five for me: Bull, Tavern on the Hill, Royal Oak and the Rick Astley-themed Mikkeler Bar (formerly George & Dragon) though these are all traditional pubs. Otherwise just the Highbury Brewhouse, where there's about a 25% chance of getting a pint which rivals Sarson's on the pH scale.

    You won't get warm beer if you vote for the Bermondsey beer mile.

    I'd come across this as well, although a number of them should be in the "Disappearing and 'in peril' breweries" thread, if they haven't gone already. I reckon I've been to about 10.
    On leaving the bar, I felt a strong blow to the back of my head. Turning round, I discovered it was the pavement

    And apart from the lack of cask, you won't get any pub heritage and you'll be paying around £4.00 a half too...

    Following on from the Crooked House demolition the local paper has done a list of 24 "historic" boozers with no listing or protection in the Black Country and 15 from the wider area. I'll have a good read later but thought some of you might enjoy it!

    Thanks for the list.

    I haven't done much in that part of the world, so this has given me a few targets. Forty of them, though the journalist has miscounted (no surprise there).

    I haven't been through the whole list, just dipped in and found this one has been closed for some time. I wonder how many others are in the same sort of danger.

    I've only been to one, as far as I know - no surprise there either! A good one, too.

    Thanks again for posting this.

    I'm planning to go through it today but I can already see at least 3 that have been closed for a while.

    I have had a look through the 24 and i think there are 4 I haven't been in - The Black Bear, Red White & Blue, The Cabin and Forge Tavern. This is not for want of trying though! I visited the Forge a few years ago to find it closed and the Black Bear keeps odd opening times. I've tried to do it twice, hopefully 3rd time lucky! I have never been near The Cabin and neither has anyone else - not even a photo!

    There are also at least 5 that are already closed and presumably under threat of conversion / demolition. Forge Tavern, The Merrivale, Red White & Blue, The Prince and Old Court House.

    The Courthouse in Kingswinford seems to appear on the list twice. I have never heard of The Northway, Sedgley. The Cabin is in that area so that could be another mistake.
