Golden Lion, #London, #N9 #RIP
📸 Hania Franek

The Golden Lion was situated at 42 The Green, it was an old coaching inn with parts dating from the 18th century. James Webb was the licensee in 1855. The pub was demolished in 1970 when the area was redeveloped. ⚰️

Just because a "#pub" is still open doesn't make it a real public house. Throughout time, pubs were places for the poor & wealthy alike to seek cheap refuge among others, obtaining much needed social interaction & forming community bonds. "Gastropubs" are the polar opposite.
Star and Garter pub, Hessle Road, Hull, 1983.

The West Port, Grassmarket 1856

It's name probably derives from the musical connection (bagpipes). It looks as though this is where you'd get your pipes made here.

The concept of friendship has been utterly distorted. People's excuses to be around others & naturally find connections have been stripped & replaced with soulless, noisy, uninviting bars. A wholesome, down to earth #Pub will never be equalled.

Join us as we briefly discuss the important connection between the pub & football scenes whilst taking a look at a stunning, prime example of a pub that highlights how important the combination are to each other. The first scene is a shortened snipped from our longer piece which covered the four pubs which surrounded the old (demolished) #BrentfordStadium. Follow us on You Tube for many similar features of the past and those we'll be releasing in the future. Thank you 🍻🤝
