Overview | Historical info | Public transport | Map

Although there are references to the Lion having closed in 1915, the Hoxne licensing records show it still open at least as late as 1968. It may have remained open after that year, but we have no concrete information.

The pub is shown on this old OS map of about 1903 (larger map)
