Description
The Bull's Head Inn is a public house dated 1764, featuring red Flemish bond brick and a slate roof. It stands three storeys tall with an entrance front that has four bays. The doorway, located to the right of centre, has a moulded surround and a porch supported on brackets. Flanking the doorway are three-light casement windows with cambered heads and projecting keystones. The first floor has three similar windows above, with a blank cambered-headed panel over the door that contains a diamond-shaped datestone. The second floor mirrors this arrangement, but the blank panel does not have a datestone. There is a 20th-century inserted doorway to the left, next to a blank gable-ended addition from the mid-19th century. To the right, a mid-19th-century addition features two doors on either side of a central carriageway, which now has a concrete lintel. A large three-light window on the first floor matches the height of the first and second floors of the original structure. To the right of this addition is a projecting gabled wing with three floors, featuring three-light windows on the ground and first floors, and a blind two-light window on the second floor. A wooden covered staircase is located at the re-entrant angle between this wing and the main block.
