About
Changed names from Moot Oak in 2020. Matlock's only brewhouse at the Red Lion Matlock Green.
Moot Oak was one of the original names for 'Matlock', meaning meeting under the oak tree. The oak tree in front of St Giles church at Starkholmes was the centre of Matlock years ago, so we felt the Red Lion is the perfect 'moot' place to replace it.
The beer is crafted on the premises and served in the bar.
