Showing the Bull in Wenlock Brewery livery but advertising Draught Bass, so presumably this photo was taken soon after the 1953 acquisition of Wenlock by Worthington's, itself a subsidiary of Bass.

I have traced another "Bull" situated in a place called Bull Fields.

 

I have just added this pub to that list but your help is definitely needed regarding it's history.

As the information is found or sent to me, including photographs, it will be shown here.

Thanks for your co-operation.

James Freeman Randall His son (my great grandfather) married Annie Turrell, the daughter of Robert Turrell (1834-1917) who ran the "Swan Inn" in Charlton village from the 1870s until he retired and moved to Clacton some time after 1901. Robert Turrell's granddaughter (my grandfather's cousin) married the son of John Boyd who ran the "Antigallican" in Woolwich (New Charlton) in the 1880s. He also died at some point in the 1880s and for a short while the pub was run by his widow, Eliza, until she remarried in 1891. ***
