Thank you , not to far then lol shame it's in bad condition and kids vandalised the inside it's been stripped now so if it's being converted into something else is interesting. Always wondered what it was called before thanks for sharing that .

I'm glad to produce these videos it gets to show people more of the canals they are not able to see I think they are amazing places to visit for history , wildlife and scenery I'm always down the cut

@@DennisBlades i bet you walked right past my house nxt to canal brierley hill by bull bridge

Thanks bud welcome to the channel got some awesome content around the area so far . Nothing like a good beer from a brewery

Thanks bud just come across this pub by chance the other day avoiding netherton tunnel on way back be interesting to see if it has a extended future but most buildings vanish when derelict

Thanks for reply bud makes sense tbh I was laughing when I first saw it . Off to do a big one tommorow down west Bromwich bit of old history

Thanks bud , there's so much old stuff going tbf , aha imagine that someone does a video on the shed 🤣 .

Your welcome mate glad you enjoyed

Thanks mate can imagine black country was much better many years back I used to live in netherton now in Halesowen

Thanks I know a brave visit but worth it , it's a step in time for me cause my grandad used to play darts in 90s and enjoyed going he was actually a decent dart player at time was gonna enter into competitions and leagues but quit

Thanks bud shame alot of the old stuff is disappearing

@@MidlandsOutdoors yep its terrible , they are destroying our heritage , building new cheap buildings that won't last long due too the heartless build quality ! But your doing an important job mate showing people these places , I only wish I were in a posision too do it myself .

@@2345bcde @supergoose123 Dudley hippodrome is one there letting it decay that so old now and wanna build on it , suppose it's good there using old space for new stuff instead of our nature spaces but they need to consider the history of these buildings it's what still makes it the black country . Anytime if see some old stuff anytime I'll document it for the channel

I know shame about that old toffee factory tbh

My grandad built the outdoor swimming pool there in the 30's got a old pic somewhere of him being the first in. Love blue bird toffee due to that

@@williamraybould8393 I never knew there was an outdoor pool there when I worked at the blue bird site 15 -20 years ago the out buildings were being used as a garden center supplies warehouse One of the big rooms had some lovely old brown and white tiling all around it I'm guessing that was the main toffee room years ago Sad for it all to be gone for a few houses

@thephantomarse it's very sad how historic building go and get turned into housing

I know right I loved seeing it walking past had some good architecture old style art deco we are loosing quiet alot of historical stuff tbh

Thanks for this bud mad to see this go derelict shame we loosing some of our black country pubs

Thanks for sharing that I remember passing it a few years back when it was open mad to see the pub the way it is tbf

@@MidlandsOutdoors Yeah Google maps showed it open in 2018 closed between 2018 and 2020/22. The image before 2018 shows a side fence with shelter and Sky sports banner plus a few others 2018 this is hanging off might have been at the front of the Pub but both now gone. Also looked in 2014 that outbuilding with a cream chair looked like it was abandoned don't think that was to do the with the pub looks like a Separate House maybe for the former Pub Owners maybe it was Inn and it was an innkeepers lodge but yeah

Wow didn't know that tbh seemed a bit of a odd place I'm 100% sure there was someone in the building at same time cause I went back on night and stuff appeared outside that wasn't there's coming out

@@MidlandsOutdoors wouldnt surprise me at al mate. Yeah, im 99% sure it closed down after a lad was stabbed to death outside there after an argument. I dont think its ever re opened.

@@helenstone9711 that's crazy tbh shame it's closed really can imagine it drawn quiet alot of locals together

@@MidlandsOutdoors it did . It used to be a popular pub

I've seen frozen cuts before but not recently. Nothing nice about a derelict pub or building. I know of places closed and then raided overnight by police and left with lots of damage so it'd be too expensive to repair. I suspect this is what happened.

This one's facing opposite road that goes to portway

Hi there mate I might go and have another butchers around that area in a few weeks if it's still the same I can take a second look

I just popped in there mate it's completely empty all the bar and furniture gone all there is now is used tyres everywhere

@@davidbaxter7201 that's mad tbh can definitely see its changed luckily I explored when it was sort of in a ok condition I recon they will knock this down in time

Omg 🤣 bet that was some good stuff lol
