The Red Lion was situated on The Street.  This pub is now in residential use.

I was working in IT for Tate & Lyle in the early 2000s, based at the refinery in Silvertown, London. T&L purchased the flour mill (then called Marstons) in Icklingham and I would be sent there occasionally to update the IT systems. I made sure to arrive in the morning so I could get lunch at the pub down the road. The beer was great, and I would have the king prawns in garlic butter appetizer, with crusty bread, and an amazing sausage salad served in giant wooden bowl. All on the company dime! A nice country drive, an hour or two of work, a fine meal, and then home. Happy days!
