The Blue Lion, Witherley
The Red Lion is the commonest pub name in Britain and there are plenty of White Lions too - but Blue Lions are much rarer beasts !
This unusually coloured feline lurks in the quiet village of Witherley just inside Leicestershire on the Warwickshire border. I last visited this hostelry about 30 years ago - and it has certainly changed quite a bit in those intervening years. It is now a very smart, modern pub inside. It used to be a real old-fashioned village pub and served an excellent pint. The beer is still good I have to say, though personally I preferred its former self; but they are probably aiming for a younger clientele than me !
The fine thin spire of Image] can be seen like a needle behind the pub. Note: the spire looks even thinner than it actually is, because one of its facets facing the camera is coated in snow rendering it almost invisible against the pale grey sky.
