A popular Halesowen pub is set to host a weekend of celebrations to toast its 70th birthday.

The Stag and Three Horseshoes pub on Halesowen Road has been serving the local community since the 1930s.

To celebrate, the pub will host a Bugsy Malone themed evening on Friday August 17. On Saturday August 18, a pool tournament will be held, with a gallon of beer for the winner. Also a free drink or pudding will be available at lunchtime for those born in the 1930s.

The celebrations culminate on Sunday August 19 with an "old fete"' themed day with stalls and games, a balloon race, coconut shy, beat the goalie and a barbecue.

The U14's football team, Halesowen Stags, will be washing cars on Sunday to raise funds to score a place at the David Beckham Academy in London.
