	I have just googled The Black Lion and it is still there. "The Black Lion is the oldest pub in Epping & is said to have links with the infamous highwayman Dick Turpin. Split into two separate bars the Black Lion remains almost unchanged from it’s early years with its oak beams and two large open fireplaces."
