ollieandarch   10 #14 Posted October 14, 2012 Named after the Handsworth sword dancers. Handsworth forum asked for people to submit names and this was what they came up with. It should do well as it is much different to the other pubs in the area being a family orientated one I hope it does it certainly looks good.  A shrewd move, getting the locals onside from the outset. Can't fault them.  http://www.handsworthsworddancers.org.uk/  Thanks for the link nikki-red, I found that quite interesting. It's nice to see these local traditions being upheld.

gaze1981 Â Â 10 #20 Posted November 4, 2012 I was disappointed to walk past on Saturday morning though, around 8:30am, and saw loads of pint glasses all grouped up on a table facing onto the main road. I'm surprised they hadn't been thrown about in the night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
jamiemcgrath   10 #21 Posted November 4, 2012 It was rammed on opening day. That will be the only time it makes a profit. I would imagine it's closed within 12 months in that location.  I love how so many Hungry Horse employee's are on this thread bigging it up!!!
