The Bowling Green, Bromsgrove

Interesting old Banks's country pub near the Worcester & Birmingham Canal, named after the sporting facility that can still be found at the rear. Also retains three separate bars, two at the front (with the first room being little more than a snug) and a larger lounge at the back, all pleasantly traditional in appearance. Also does food, but I timed my visit badly as the Bromsgrove Folk Festival is held here in the camp site at the back and no further orders were being taken. However, I stayed for a pint, and found the regular Bitter and Mild (£3.35, which must be a festival price) plus Wainwright available on handpump from the central servery.
