Another pub listed as belonging to Edwin was the Lion pub. I never saw this in Llandogo. Do you know where it was?

As you know the Sloop is on the Monmouth - Chepstow road, if you come a short distance south towards Chepstow there was also a Ship Inn.

If you had gone a short distance south west from the Sloop up on the wooded area of the valley, there is a road running sort of parallel with the main Wye valley road and that is where the Lion Inn was. Cleddon Shoots behind it.

roughly Inglewood, Llandogo, Monmouth NP25 4TQ. :-
