Red Lion - High Street

Another Georgian property, this pub first appears in Trade Directories for 1870 when Charles Milne was tenant. It was known as the Horse & Groom before this date. For many years the pub was the meeting place of Lodge 28 of the Nottingham Oddfellows Friendly Society, one of two lodges in the village. Edgar Daniels was tenant from 1925 until well into the 1960s and was in situ when, in the 1930s, a lion from a visiting circus was encaged in the garden. Troops were billeted here in World War II.
