Willenhall / The Three Tuns Pub
« on: Thursday 28 May 09 22:57 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Can anyone remember the Three Tuns Public House in Willenhall? ......  I believe it has now been demolished. My gt grandparents were the publicans here circa 1905, I would love to see a picture  of the pub, does anyone know where I might find one?
Any suggestions gratefully recieved.
Regards
Alyson

Hi Alyson,
I haven't managed to find a photograph for you, but I wondered if you had seen this descriptiion:
WALSALL ROAD Willenhall
Three Tuns PH
Small C18 house extended early-mid C19.Pair of very large double-width bay windows with 2- and 3-light sashes, central door. First floor has 3-light sashes under shallow painted stone lintels. Single-storey (?) brewery extension to one side behind railings. 1985

Hope it helps.
Paulene :)

There are two books on Amazon , one called Woverhampton Pubs and the other called Black Country Pubs which include a lot of old photographs.
Iam not sure if they cover the Willenhall area but its possible?

Regards Paul
