Description

The Bull Inn is an early 18th-century inn, with alterations to the ground floor in the 19th century. It is constructed of grey brick with red brick dressings, and has a plain tile roof with a brick ridge stack. The building has a complex layout and is two storeys and an attic, with a seven-window facade arranged as a 1:5:1 pattern. A central carriage entrance is a prominent feature. To the left is a canted bay window with a flat roof and sash windows. A former doorway is now a window, sheltered by a flat hood supported on shaped brackets. A 20th-century window is located to the right, with a 20th-century door at the right end. The first floor has five 12-pane sash windows with thick glazing bars. The roof features a broken three-bay pediment in the centre, with carved brick mouldings and a central half-circular window. There are two gabled dormers, one on each side. The building tapers slightly at both ends. A 19th-century tripartite sash window is situated on the ground floor to the left, and a 20th-century shopfront is on the right. Further 12-pane sash windows are present on the left and right of the ground floor, alongside a 2-light 19th-century casement window below the eaves.
