Excellent old pub in a quiet area with a gently historical feel, with traditional furnishings and bits of old partitions or walls. The handpump all face the room to the left - we went in the right hand side but the barmaid obligingly laid out the pump clips for us. There were 4 changing ales and a couple of ciders, plus a wall of a dozen keg taps with an interesting selection. I went for the Tring Fanny Ebbs as this had run out at a previous pub; good condition but I won't bother again. The pub definitely warrants a revisit though.

Old fashioned but pleasant pus hidden down the hill from the town. Good Beer Guide entry and did have a selection of beers. Child free and with an outside space, though this is within the car park but big enough to be separate.

The Lower red Lion is a nice looking pub that is situated on the very nice looking Fishpool Street.
Once inside there are two separate rooms,the room to the right is square shaped and carpeted,there is comfy bench seating and normal tables and chairs,the right side of the room is up one step.
The room to the left is also square shaped and carpeted and has bench seating and chairs.
There were four real ales on the bar,i had a drink of 3 Brothers Blonde,which went down well,the other real ales were Dark Fox Bitter,Tring Gazelle and Vale Brill Gold.
I had a good chat with the friendly young couple who were behind the bar on my Saturday dinner visit,they also gave me directions to the Ye Olde Fighting Cocks.
I thought this was a very pleasant and comfortable pub to have a drink in.
