The Bull Inn

The Bull Inn is a public house located on Linton Hill, dating from the 16th century or early 17th century, with later alterations from the 17th and 19th centuries. The building is timber framed, featuring exposed framing with plaster infilling on the first floor of the left wing, while the rest of the structure is rendered. It has a plain tile roof, with a main range that includes a cross-wing projecting forward to the left. The right end of the main range may have been added later. The cross-wing is two storeys tall, with an attic and cellar built on a brick plinth, while the main range is also two storeys high, set on a rendered plinth. There is an underbuilt jetty at the gable end of the cross-wing and a continuous jetty on a moulded bressumer along all but the right end of the main range. The wing features close-studded framing and plain bargeboards. The roof of the main range is half-hipped to the right, with a higher ridge than the wing. A projecting brick stack is located on the left side elevation of the wing, with additional stacks towards the centre and right end of the main range.

The building has an irregular arrangement of six casement windows, including one three-light window in the cross-wing, three three-light windows in the central section of the main range, one five-light window, and one single-light window in the former post-office section to the right. There is a slightly canted 19th-century shop front to the former post-office, featuring two three-light windows flanking a half-glazed door, with a moulded cornice and plain fascia. Access includes ribbed doors up two steps on the right side elevation of the wing, towards the centre of the main range, and to the right of the shop front. The rear left return wing of the main range is immediately to the right of the cross-wing, accompanied by three short rear wings to the main range. The date "AG" is painted on the main range.

The interior has only been partially inspected, but it features exposed framing, moulded ground-floor beams, and two moulded stone fireplaces with four-centred arched wooden bressumers located in the wing and main range.
