About The Stratford Lyon
When John de Stratford surveyed his lands 600 years ago and came across a huge pair of antlers in the ground, he could never have imagined what he was about to uncover.
Hidden beneath the earth for centuries, until dragged into the light in medieval times, was this King of beasts, a giant lion, blood-red in hue, with a crown of mighty antlers on its brow.
A battle of wits ensured, but de Stratford calmed the beast, which remained loyal to its adopted kin ever thereafter, appearing in the shadows to share joy in festive times and comfort in times of sorrow.
Unexpected, surprising, unpredictable.
Savour the fire of this powerful English beast, tamed just enough to make it good company.
