My granny got a job as a waitress at the Lion Hotel so that she could be near her young man to whom she had just got engaged in 1927. I doubt if it has changed much since that time.

RE: RE: Lion Hotel

To Christopher, my wife's mother also worked at the Lion Hotel at the same time as your grandmother, 1926 through to 1935. Have you any photos of the staff? It would be great to find something we could share.
