Red Lion Hotel, Middleton, Manchester

The Red Lion Hotel was a smart looking roadside pub that was on the Middleton to Heywood road,it was quite close to the langley estate. Once inside i went into a smartish room that looked more like a lounge,this room was carpeted and had comfortable bench seating and chairs. The pub was a Boddingtons tied house and there was one real ale on the bar,this was Boddingtons bitter which was ok but nothing special. This was quite a pleasant pub to have a drink in. Sadly this pub has now been pulled down and there are some ugly looking houses on its site. I never thought a pub like this would close down,how times have changed. Pub visited 7/8/1997
