Notes From The Frith Files.

A Memory of Powick.

This photograph shows the Red Lion pub set back from the junction of Malvern Road with Upton Road which is on the right.  The traffic island was soon to disappear as this main road section became a one way system by the early 1960s.  The pub still exists.  Seasonal hop pickers would have used the pub as extensive hop yards existed behind the houses on the right.  I lived in this part of Powick and was 5 years old in 1955.
