This is the A458 Stourbridge to Bridgnorth Road. Here is it called Enville Street, but later, as it passes through the Wollaston area, it is known as Bridgnorth Road. On the left can be glimpsed the Wollaston Fish Too shop [[1253000]]. In the far distant on the left are three storey blocks of apartments. All along Enville Street and Bridgnorth Road there is still a generous selection of pubs.

It's difficult for a non-local to know where Wollaston, now a suburb of Stourbridge, ends and where Stourbridge proper begins. But this fish & chip etc shop seems to think it is in Wollaston, so presumably this is more or less where Wollaston begins.

One of the many pubs in this area, this should not be confused with The Queens Head in High Street Wordsley Stourbridge, which is an Enville Brewery tap house. Next door to the right is another pub, Somerset House [[1252845]]

One of the many pubs in this area, this one is on the corner of Enville Street and Summer Street. Next door is The Queen's Head, which can be seen on the left of the picture. [[1252896]]. For another view of Somerset House and its unique claim to fame see [[1252845]]

This strangely named public house has one claim to fame - you can apparently push your beer glass against the bar walls and it will stay suspended there. Why anyone would want to do this isn't clear, but you can read more about it from this link: http://www.strangestbooks.co.uk/page 19.html Apart from the magical qualities of its walls, the pub is also blessed with its own car park. This is an advantage that not all of the many other pubs in the area possess.

Dist:0.1km<br/>As the pub is named after the present owner's grandmother, the photograph on the sign presumably shows her grandparents. The musical instruments beneath, indicate this pub frequently has live music. [[2098843]].

Dist:0.1km<br/>A very popular pub named after the present owner's grandmother. It is on the corner of Enville Street and Mamble Road, and is one of several to be found along Enville Street. The pub has an interesting website, which includes detailed research on the pub's history by John Richards. According to this, the pub started out as a one-roomed beerhouse in the 1840's. It was known as The Golden Lion. It was in competition with a pub opposite, known as the Bridge Inn, which no longer exists. Both brewed their own beer. From August 1989, for a few years, it was known as The Stourbridge Lion. Today under its present name, the pub offers a range of beers and frequent live music. [[2098852]].
