The Waggon and Horses
Cannock Road

This pub seems to have been built in the early 1950s.
It replaced a pub which was at a much lower level. The ground was
built up, presumably to make the new pub more accessible and visible.
I am told by an elderly gentleman in the bar that you got to the old pub
down a flight of 29 steps from Cannock Road and that the pub was
therefore known as "The Twenty-Nine Steps".

This tile picture above the main entrance is not the
greatest piece of tile art you have ever seen but it seems to be the
only tile picture left in Wolverhampton. A crude thing but our
own.
