Landlady names pub after her father

Landlady Trina Keane has launched a totally vegetarian pub – and has named it after her father, using money left in his will to finance the project.

A picture of David Murphy, from Aldridge, who died two years ago, aged 83, now hangs outside the pub – formerly the Waggon and Horses – in Worcester Street, Stourbridge.

She also runs Katie Fitzgerald’s, in Enville Street, Stourbridge, which is a popular venue for live music and is named after her grandmother, who was from Cork in Ireland.

David Murphy’s, which opened yesterday after a £200,000 facelift by Trina and her partner, Eddy Morton, is the first pub in the area to serve all-vegetarian food.
