The Black Lion was situated on the corner of the High Street and New Street, it adjoined the building that is now Lloyds TSB bank. The end of New Street was very narrow, and in 1970 The Black Lion and several other buildings were demolished in a road widening scheme. This pub was present by 1774. Publican in 1841 was John Mockridge.
