The Red Lion

The Red Lion The Red Lion was originally a farm, then in the late 1700's it became a Drovers Inn. In the Bar we have a wide and varied selection of Cask Ales.

The Red Lion was originally a farm, then in the late 1700's it became a Drovers Inn and was used by farmers to water and rest themselves and their stock on the journey to Bishop Auckland mart. We pride ourselves on a very high standard of cellar management which guarantees you the perfect pint. We also serve a variety of keg beers, draught lagers, wines and spirits Cocktails, alcohol free beers and a range of soft drinks.

Right peeps, in just 7 days time I'll be running the Great North Run for Durham Dogs & Cats Home, link to donate below.
https://ajbellgreatnorthrun2026.enthuse.com/pf/jason-allison
Now usually this would be pretty straight forward for me, it would always hurt but I would be trained for the distance. NOT THIS TIME!
I've had a ni**le, two ni**les actually and I've not ran a great deal over the last couple of months. So this is going to be a challenge to get it done.
I can't back out now, please support me by donating on the link.
Thank you for all who has donated already online and in the shop.
