Real Heritage Pubs of the Midlands

A beautifully illustrated guide to those pubs in the East and West Midlands that have retained features of significant architectural interest.
This guide will lead you to the pubs throughout the East and West Midlands that still have interiors or internal features of real historic significance. They range from rural ‘time-warp’ pubs, some with no bar counters, to ornate drinking ‘palaces’, and include some unsung interiors from the inter-war period. This is the first guide of its kind for the Midlands, and it champions the need to celebrate, understand and protect the genuine pub heritage that remains to us. Features on specific aspects of pub design and history – such as ceramics and table-service – supplement the pub entries. The guide was produced from the work of CAMRA’s Pub Heritage Group.
