Pub managers Mark and Carolyne Batty are pictured at The Leyland Lion, in Leyland.
Leyland was the home to the world-famous Leyland Motors, later British Leyland. The company’s ‘Lion’ buses proved to be a global winner for the company.
The pub’s interior celebrates the bus designs and the boom in public transport of the 1920s, with a feature bench bus seat and coffee tables made from original luggage trunks, as well as a bar which includes stainless-steel trim and recycled tyre tread.
