Above photo, circa 1955, kindly sent by Rory Kehoe. 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.

Pub closed in 2024 for the development of the new leisure centre adjacent to it. However it is expected to reopen once the development is complete.

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. ***
