The
picture on the left is of William Whitmore and his wife Elizabeth, outside Wandon
End house c.1856. William Whitmore was the landlord of The Red Lion in the latter
part of the 19th century. He is recorded as being a horse dealer and the business
was conducted from the rear of the pub. His family lived at Colemans Farm and
he is a relative of Richard Whitmore, the TV presenter. | |
You
will need to enlarge the picture on the right. It was taken from the Hertfordshire
Express, February 19th 1881. It concerns a fight in the Red Lion involving William
Whitmore and the baker, William Pryor. Nothing much changes! |
