Description
The former Bull Inn Public House is a building dating from the early 18th century, with a facade that was largely rebuilt around 1901, and possibly an additional section added. The front elevation is made of painted brick, and it features a plain tile roof. The structure has two storeys, an attic, and a cellar, all resting on a painted brick plinth. There is a moulded string course and a moulded wooden eaves cornice that reflects its early 18th-century style. The roof is gabled, with a brick ridge stack located towards the left end and a projecting red and grey brick gable end stack on the right.
The building has three hipped two-light dormers that also appear to be from the early 18th century, each with moulded wooden cornices, positioned between the stacks. The windows are arranged irregularly, featuring five large, recessed early 20th-century casements: one three-light to the left of the stack, one two-light beneath the stack, and three three-light windows to the right. On the ground floor, there are four windows with ovolo-moulded lintels and stained-glass top lights. A half-glazed door with a top light and an ovolo-moulded lintel is accessed by four steps with plain iron handrails, located under the left stack. There is a similar doorway that leads up one step towards the centre of the section between the stacks.
The interior has only been partly inspected, but it includes a chamfered axial beam in the right end ground-floor room. The building is included for its group value.
