The Red Lion, Brightwell-cum-Sotwell

            The village's only pub is very typical of many such old pubs in southern England. Look closely at the ridge of the recently re-thatched roof, where the thatchers have built their signature finials formed of wire mesh stuffed with reeds: a lion above the Red Lion end, and a cricket bat, ball, and stumps at the far end (a separate private house). I am not entirely sure, though, how appropriate their choice of beer is if the umbrellas are to be believed ...
