The Woodman pub on Easy Row. The woodman's heyday was during the 1850s. It was around this date when Jem Irons was the host and Joe Allday, who was founder of The Ratepayers Protection Society and leader of The Economists on the Town Council would lay down the law in the smoke room. Mustard, gelatine and soda water manufacturer John Walsh Walsh, was another regular. He organised two fetes at Aston Park in 1856 and raised over £5,000 for the Birmingham Hospitals. The Woodman was refurbished in 1891. The second picture is of the interior in 1949.
