Slippery Sales Aquatic Centre and Three Lions, 11-12 Foundry Street, Stourport-on-Severn

This building was formerly a mid-19th century warehouse for Baldwin's Foundry. It is a Grade II listed building. The foundry was opposite but was demolished and replaced by the County Buildings. The building backs onto the Staffs & Worcs Canal, as can be seen in this view:- SO8171 : Former Baldwins' warehouse by Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal.

The ground floor, which is actually partially below street level, is occupied by Slippery Sales. They were established in 1982 and sell tropical, coldwater and marine fish.

On the first floor is a pub called the Three Lions. The pub is very sports orientated, which is not surprising as until a couple of years or so ago, it was a sports club. It is very much a locals pub, as the tourist trade is concentrated on the other end of the town centre near the River Severn. There is a function room which can be hired.
