Located in the Bromford area of Erdington in Birmingham, the Lad in the Lane is a Grade II listed pub considered the oldest house in the city. Dendrochronological analysis of its timbers reveals construction in spring at the end of the 14th century, though the building's official dating of 1400 marks its conventional recognition. Originally built as a high-status family home, it served this purpose until the early 1780s, when it was converted into a pub. Known variously as The Green Man and the Old Green Man, it became a gathering place for foresters employed by the Earl of Warwick. The pub underwent extension and alteration in the 1930s. The building received listed status in 1952 and was designated Grade II in 1982.
