Description
The Black Bull Public House is a public house located on a corner site in Dewsbury, built in the early 20th century in the Arts and Crafts style. It features ashlar stonework and has steeply pitched tiled roofs with tall stone end chimneys that have caps. The building is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with an additional canted bay to the right. The first floor has tall windows in the first and third bays that extend above the eaves, forming elongated hipped dormers. On the ground floor to the left, there are square bay windows. An elaborate cartouche is positioned above the entrance door. The gable wall is adorned with pilaster strip decorations that flank a three-light window on each floor. To the right, where the first floor overhangs, there is a well-carved grotesque, which is an animal-human corbel.
