The pub stands prominently opposite the historic St Chad's Church tower, but its location, and live Sky Sports TV wasn't enough to save it from closure. The building has been stripped of its contents, and is securely boarded up. Update (February 2012) I have been contacted by Peter Knowles of Nextep Inns Limited who tells me that the Red Lion will re-open last week in March 2012, following a major refurbishment.
