Malden man left this review about The Red Lion

Homely village local with two rooms/areas either side of the bar. Both rooms are what I'd call parlour style with log fires, ticking clocks, old cast iron three legged tables with wooden tops. A small grandfather clock in one corner (think it may actually be a grandmother clock?). Decor includes local scenes and also Mediterranean prints. The landlord is of Spanish origin, he is actually called Julio Iglesias but I'm pretty certain he isn't the 1970's crooner! A picture in the gents is entitled "The Supreme Challenge", it depicts The Grand National horses including Red Rum jumping Bechers. B&B is available. Drinkers need to beware the old hours, ie close at 3pm in the afternoons. Three handpumps on the bar serving at the time Thwaites Original, Marstons Pedigree and John Smiths Cask.
