The White Lion was situated at the corner of the High Street and The Green. This pub is now in residential use.
 
This pub holds a very special memory for me. In 1973, I was a 15 year old schoolboy from nearby Radley College bicycling through the lanes with my friend Rory when we came across the White Lion. I remember we bought halves of bitter (pints seemed a bit too much for our adolescent sensibilities!) and were not challenged about our ages and then spent a very pleasant afternoon playing bar billiards. It must have been before pubs had all day opening so we were probably there at about lunchtime on a Saturday or maybe it was a Sunday. Anyway, it was my very first (illegal) experience of going into a pub as a teenager without any adult present. Quite a significant memory I would say.
