Red Lion Hotel

This old village pub had a most unusual refit just after the war and materials used include items from demolished houses in Liverpool. It has four rooms and the toilets are ‘must see’ as well! The parquet floored public bar has a set of six leaded glass windows with inserts of different Welsh scenes, a large limestone and brick fireplace, and bar back fitting all dating from the 1940s; the bar counter is difficult to date but could be 40 years old. The gents' accessed from the public bar has amazing walls of multi-coloured pieces of tiling from Victorian houses. The lounge bar has a 1940s large limestone and brick fireplace but the bar fittings are modern. A room on a lower level has another impressive fireplace and beyond that is what looks like someone's living room. Both the ladies’ and gents’ toilets here are worth a look with their walls of green Art Deco vitreous glass panels; the gents’ has two massive urinals from the 1930s. To the left of the rear main entrance is another (dining) room also with a 1930s large limestone and brick fireplace.
