The Friends of the White Lion submitted their request to have the pub on Sandwell Street locally listed in August 2024, a move that would provide additional protection for the building’s unique character in future planning decisions. While local listing does not offer the same level of safeguarding as a national listing, it ensures the building’s historical significance is taken into account by planners.
