History of the Golden Lion on Lionel Street in Birmingham in the county of Warwickshire.

Some history of the Golden Lion

More information on the Golden Lion on Lionel Street to follow. I probably created the page as I had a link to the Golden Lion from another page. When building the site it is easier to place links as they crop up rather than go back later on. I realise this is frustrating if you were specifically looking for information on the Golden Lion. There is information on Birmingham dotted around the website - click here for a suitable starting place.

Note : Emma and Robert East had previously kept the Adderley Arms on High Street Saltley.
