Colin Trotman Red Lion Added: 28 Oct 2020 14:35 GMT	Old Red Lion I feel your suggestion that the Old Red Lion on Green Street was ’demolished in 1962’ is incorrect; I was born in Borehamwood in 1957, and remember it well - must have therefore still been there in the mid sixties at least. Reply
The Underground Map Red Lion Added: 24 Nov 2020 14:02 GMT	Red Lion demolition There were two pubs in Green Street. While our source of information may be incorrect, the second one we think DID last until the late 1960s as Patrick McGoohan drank there while creating ’The Prisoner’ Reply
Kevin Pont South Lambeth Added: 16 Feb 2024 20:32 GMT	Name origin Interestingly South Lambeth derives its name from the same source as Lambeth itself - a landing place for lambs. But South Lambeth has no landing place - it is not on the River Thames Reply
