The Royal Victoria And Bull Inn

The Royal Victoria and Bull Inn is a former large coaching inn located on the London to Canterbury and Dover road, built in 1703. The building has two storeys and attics. The ground floor is made of painted brick with a tiled base, while the upper part is faced with grey bricks, which have been renewed, and features red brick window dressings and quoins. The roof is tiled and includes three dormers, with a parapet made of grey bricks and a wooden modillion cornice. There are nine sashes with intact glazing bars.

In the centre of the ground floor, there is a carriage entrance leading to the hotel yard, flanked by royal cartouches on each side. To the left of the carriage entrance are Tuscan columns, and the pub front dates from the 18th century. The building extends back into two long wings separated by the hotel yard, which has galleries on each side on the first floor. The yard is now glazed over and features a galleried courtyard, while the saloon bar includes a Regency bay window.
