Erected by the Pelican Band of Mercy
... 5 January 1889. Inscription on the stone behind the Image
I am very grateful to Dave Clark for the following info:
The beginnings of The Band of Mercy are documented in "History in Portsmouth" in an article entitled 'REV. THOMAS TIMMINS (1841–1898) - FOUNDER OF THE BAND OF MERCY' http://www.history.inportsmouth.co.uk/people/timmins.htm .
Dave is not sure about the "Pelican" annotation.
Apparently the Band of Mercy was the forerunner of Animal Liberation Front (ALF). A part of their history that the RSPCA will not be proud is at http://www.understandinganimalresearch.org.uk/policy/animal-rights-extremism/the-early-history-of-animal-rights-extremism/ .

Corner of Red Lion, Newbrough
The large broken boulder on the front right corner of the Red Lion Image was the focus for my photo on a wet winter afternoon. There is a story that this is the current resting place of one of the four stones said to have given the neighbouring community of Fourstones its name.
A discussion of Fourstones and the history and mythology attached to the stones that gave it its name is given here: http://heddonhistory.weebly.com/blog/fairy-tale
