My husband and I were co-owners of the Red Lion
Inn from 1970 till 1976.
We built the restaurant and extended the car park. It was the most popular
place within a 50 mile radius. Apart from farmers and locals from various
surrounding villages, our clientele consisted of staff from the Alconbury
Airbase, staff and parents from Oundle School and members of the Royal
Household. We entertained the Rev. Jessie Jackson here. I will publish my
memoir shortly which contains several chapters on the inn.
We had live music in the restaurant and a dance floor and we held festival
weekends which were very popular. |
