What is recorded here
This black commemorative plaque records: The Red Lion: Former coaching inn, established at least 200 years ago in the era of droving and the Doune Fairs. Buildings down this lane, originally stabling for horses, were in time replaced by a garage. In the early 20th century this was the location of Doune's first petrol pump. Recorded plaque organisation: Kilmadock Development Trust.
The Red Lion, an historic coaching inn established at least two centuries ago, served as a crucial stop during the era of droving and Doune Fairs, later adapting to modern transportation by hosting Doune's first petrol pump in the early 20th century.
