The Bull was situated at 115 High Street North. This pub has now been converted to apartments.

I was a teacher on exchange at Watling Primary School in 1974. I was living in Radburn Court and taught at the school is in Bull Pond Lane so I used to walk home via Union Street. I had this idea that ALL Englishmen had a ‘local’ and since this was the nearest I decide to adopt the Bull, and called in there fairly regularly. I recall that, as I was about to return to Australia the Publican gave me a towelling, bar coaster I think it is called, which advertised Trophy Bitter as a memento of my time in Britain. I wasn’t very keen on English beer then and probably had a lager in those days. My palate has matured somewhat and I would now be open to trying more local beers. I liked the intimate nature of the pub, and the friendly staff.
