Black Lion - Cardigan, Ceredigion, Wales. - Pictorial Pub Signs on Waymarking.com

Black Lion Hotel - Now closed awaiting another new owner. Cardigan, Ceredigion, Wales.

"The core of the present building may date from the C17. By 1761 the Cardigan Borough Council were using the property for their meetings. The Sea Serjeants visited that year. In 1768 John Lewis, Mayor of Cardigan, had his council chamber in the inn, which was then kept by Judith Price. The venue was used by Cardigan Borough Council until 1770. In 1778-89 they met here regularly again." Text Source: (visit link)

Inside the pub has three separate rooms, a dedicated restaurant, a relaxing coffee room and traditional bar with a real fire for the colder months. Offers real ales from the local Mantle brewery."
