    Pubs On And Around Unett Street

    The Pilgrims Tavern and the Dolphin are two that were definitely there as I have a map that shows them both but my mom is certain that there was one on every corner. Any suggestions as to what the others were called and if there are any photos anywhere?

    The Bell in Old Church Road, Harborne

    Relatives of mine used to run this pub and I wondered if anyone has any memories or old photographs they can share with me? I sent the pub a message about its history a few days ago but haven't received a reply. I'd be grateful for any help.
