Peacock Inn

Located atop the Birmingham Plateau in the quaint rural hamlet of Forhill, just two miles south of the historic Kings Norton, stands a delightful red brick former coaching inn that is a hidden treasure in the North Worcestershire countryside. This charming country pub, constructed in 1828 along the ancient Roman road of Icknield Street, The Peacock Inn, is a sanctuary for walkers, hikers, and cyclists exploring the beauty of North Worcestershire, all while being conveniently less than 10 miles south of the vibrant city centre of Birmingham.

The 37-mile long North Worcestershire Path runs directly opposite The Peacock at Forhill Picnic Place, offering a picturesque route through the stunning rural Worcestershire landscape, river valleys, and dense woodlands, leading towards the Georgian riverside town of Bewdley, home to the renowned Severn Valley Railway. Just two miles to the north lies the historic Kings Norton, boasting charming canalside walks, a medieval village green, and a 13th-century church.

Nestled near the dog-friendly village of Bournville and the renowned Cadbury World experience, The Peacock Inn caters to tourists, hikers, and locals alike. With its original oak beams, stone floors, and inviting log fires, the inn provides a unique blend of ample space while maintaining a warm and cosy atmosphere. It serves as the ideal setting to indulge in traditional pub fare and beverages, offering visitors a true taste of English countryside hospitality.
