This image is probably pre-1900, but it wasn't labelled so can't confirm that. It's from the Birmingham Mail archives. Viv.

Yes Lyn just checked and there were 4 threads about the Barton Arms. So I've merged them together. There are quite a few missing images, so if anyone can help to replace them please shout. Thanks. Viv.
 
Going back a very long time my grandad used to entertain in the Bartons Arms under the name Will Bent, he was a comedian. I wonder does anyone remember this.

I also remember that when my grandparents were living in Newtown there were two other pubs, The Griffin and the Paddocks.

I've used both of them very fond memories of both pubs , ranging from 76-96
