Description
The One Bull Public House is a public house with a core dating from the 16th century, featuring a late 18th-century exterior and extensive modernizations from the 20th century. It is timber-framed and rendered, with a roof covered in 20th-century plain tiles. The building has two storeys and cellars, with a roof that is on two levels; the left side is higher than the right. There is an internal chimney-stack between the two sections, made of old red brick with a rebuilt top.
The façade has a four-window range with 16-pane sash windows in flush cased frames, and two similar windows on the ground floor. The entrance is off-centre and features plain pilasters and a heavy flat pediment supported by console brackets, with a 20th-century glazed door. To the left, a former entry into a rear yard has been infilled in the late 20th century with recessed double doors.
Inside, the pub has been heavily restored, with many internal partitions removed and few original timbers remaining. One ground-floor beam has ogee-moulding. There is a glazed roof over the former entry and rear yard, and an inn gallery in the rear range features replacement Edwardian balusters in Jacobean style, now behind a glazed screen. The upper rooms to the right of the chimney-stack have exposed fragments of timbering, none of which predates the 18th century, and the roof in this area has been renewed. Additionally, there is a long tunnel vault beneath the former entry and yard, oriented at right angles to the street, lined with 19th-century brick.
