3 Church Street, Framlingham

Grade II Listed bistro with a 16th century core and late 19th or early 20th century front. Currently (2017) Lemon Tree Bistro it has previously been a Co-operative Wholesale Society Shop, Rossini's Restaurant, Bulstrodes (mid 1990s-2000) and the White Lyon/Lion Public House. CAMRA suggests the White Lion in Church Street opened pre-1686 and closed post 1912 and quotes references to the pub in the Ipswich Journal in 1742, 1744 and 1749 although no mention is made there of the location. Searching directories from 1839 no mention is made of a White Lion, listing only the Crown and Anchor formerly on the opposite side of Crown & Anchor Lane. It is likely therefore the White Lion was closed prior to 1839.
