Dramatic video footage filmed by a member of the public shows the Greyhound and Punchbowl pub engulfed in flames.

Tall flames can be seen blasting out of the lower floor windows and making their way up the face of the building.

David Davies, 41, from Bilston, said he saw the smoke shortly after closing time. He said: “I live round the corner and the pub had just chucked everybody out after a lock in then I saw the smoke and heard the sirens. There’s always a fight in there, hence the name punch bowl.”
