Dog and Partridge

looking through all our directories I traced the Dog and Partridge back as far 1839 the owner then being E Peters over the years the address of the pub was either 52 Ashtead Row or 186 Windsor Street one year it was 129 the last owner in the directories was Alfred Good man 1950 after than it just mentioned the Dog and Partridge and not the publican it was still there in 1974 our last directory.
 
Andrew Maxam in his book "Time Gentlemen Please" based on the Mitchells & Butlers Archives describes the Dog & Partridge thus,

Dog & Partridge 51/52 Ashted Row & 128 Windsor St. The pub is still there but Ashted Row is now the dual carriageway Nechells Parkway. The pub still bears the Ashted Row street sign. One of the area’s oldest pubs dating from the late 1700’s.

It's in Ashted Row, Duddeston/Nechells. I was passing so I thought I would take a picture. I've been in there a few times but that was many years ago. Never known of any problems.

I more than likely served you. Dads name is Keith :-\
Hi Ang my mom & dad used to drink with Keith & Marge in your pub !
My parents are Jim & Peg they ran the Dillon’s newsagents.
Remember some great days & nights in there as a kid.
 
Just thinking of the name Dog and Partridge, would the dog have been an English Pointer?

The English Pointer was bred as a partridge hunting dog. I have had two and they are an incredibly athletic, energetic and intelligent dog that does not grow up until they are about 10.

Here is my latest daft pointer.

I lived at the Dog and Partridge for a while as a child (late 50's early 60's) my father (Stan "Chalkie" White) and mother (Betty) were the Landlord and Landlady. Would love to hear from anyone with memories or pictures of the pub.
 
The pub is now home to 2 charming families who keep it spotless next to a factory building sold to my church. Woodland opposite is well kept up likewise a little Subway. Completely changed then from 1980s. SuHodsoll
