![The Queen's Head Inn (2) - signs, Sugarbrook Lane, Stoke Pound. These are very modern signs, and no doubt when the pub was renamed from the Blacksmith's Arms to the Queen's Head, there would have been a sign showing the head of Queen Victoria. During her reign (1837-1901), especially in the earlier part, there would have been many people unable to read and write, so easily recognisable signs were essential for pubs and inns.

![The Queen's Head Inn (1), Sugarbrook Lane, Stoke Pound. Adjacent to the Worcester & Birmingham Canal, but the pub precedes the canal and was known as the Blacksmith's Arms, because for many years it was also the site of a blacksmith's smithy. The last blacksmith to work there was Jack Bennett who was there from 1920 to 1970. However the pub became the Queen's Head during the reign of Queen Victoria. Today it is a restaurant as well as a pub.[[3205757]].[[3205775]]. by P L Chadwick – 21 January 2012](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/20/57/3205745_fa706a41_120x120.jpg)


![The Queen's Head Inn (3), Sugarbrook Lane, Stoke Pound. It is very likely that the range of single story buildings on the left, only part of which are seen in this view, would have been the location of the blacksmith's smithy. This operated alongside the pub from before Victorian times until as late as 1970.[[3205745]].[[3205757]]. by P L Chadwick – 21 January 2012](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/20/57/3205775_5007a538_120x120.jpg)
