Should be the sixth generation of the Red Lion Inns. Situated in the ground floor of Lyton Building at Mody Road. The large sign reads Red Lion Bar, but the sign above the still reads Red Lion Inn.
Appears on Google Streetview in 2011, gone in 2016 (unfortunately no in-between entries). Probably moved from the previous location at Lock Road to this place in 2010, but survived here only a few years.

Possibly 5th generation, located at 7 Lock Road. Appears on Streetview in the 2009 version, gone in 2011 (replaced by a shop for shoes and handbags).
