The area around Llanidloes was once important for the mining of lead and silver, and the town had a thriving flannel industry. It was also notorious as a focus of industrial unrest during the 19th century Chartist revolt in 1839, a campaign for democratic rights prompted by the collapse of the local textile industry. During the unrest, three local people were arrested and held in a local hotel until the protesters forced their release. The town was controlled by the protesters until a detachment of Shropshire Yeomanry arrived and restored Government authority. Ringleaders were arrested, tried and sentenced to imprisonment or transportation.

The Red Lion, with its large open fireplace, flagstone floors and Georgian interior is steeped in over 200 years of history.
The bar is home to a selection of Cask Real Ales from the Wadworth collection and wines from around the world.
The Red Lion is within easy walking distance of the historical Lacock Abbey, the saxon church of St Cyriac, the 15th century tithe barn and plenty of village stores and craft fairs.
Lacock, as well as being itself an area of great interest, is close to many of England's major attractions such as Bath, Bristol, Stonehenge and Avebury.
