Trying to find old picture of a demolished pub

[TrevorFranklin]

I am trying to find an image of a pub called the Red Lion that was at 140 Balaam Street, Plaistow London E13.
I know it has been demolished, but a long trawl of the 'net has been blank in finding an image.
Does anyone have access to the newspaper archives, who could see if there was any advertisements with their image?

I haven't located an image but if you haven't already done so, you could try searching under its other names as given in the link below

Some more info here:

And appositely given that you've posted this query on a family history search it turns out 140 Balaam Street is now the address for Barnardos Making Connections!

Have a look here to see if the one you want is featured https://www.google.es/search?q=histo...w=1455&bih=705

Loads of Local History Societies for East London if you enter that as a search in google. Any would be able to help I'm sure.

Also this one http://pubshistory.com/LondonPubs/LondonPubIndex.shtml

Thanks Christine,
That is the image I was looking for, I did not know it had been renamed a final time before it was demolished.

I lived in Balaam Street for a long time and a couple of people and myself are creating a 'then and now' type document of the street.
