By 1870 Edward Parkinson was a butcher and victualler at the Red Lion, whilst Harriet Parkinson was at the Plough, from at least 1855. From 1892 to 1921 Henry Parkinson (F4629) was brewing at the Plough, followed in 1922 by Charles Henry Parkinson.

In April 1923 it was bought for £4,600 by the All Saints Brewery Co. (Leicester) Ltd, although two years later, Walter Croghan was still shown as the brewer of the beer retailed.

However, the beam from which the sign once hung still protrudes from the frontage, albeit somewhat ravaged by the weather.
