144 High Street

Crayford

Above photo 1910, showing a procession with the fire brigade leading.

I am informed that the pub is no longer there. Further information indicated that the "Bull's Head" was bombed during the Second World War and a number of children died there as they were gathering there to be transported into the countryside. Apparently a church was built on the site of the pub in memory of the children.
