18th to 19th century structure at The Bull Public House (EHER 80029)

Trial trenching and the monitoring of the removal of building foundations in 2016 uncovered features consistent with an 18th century building, which is corroborated by maps from 1777 and 1868.

Trial trenching. 2016. Features including walls were uncovered in trench 6 suggesting the presence of an 18th century structure. Monitoring removal of building foundations. 2016. Features such as walls, ditches and walls were observed and plotted during the removal of building foundations. These are indicative of buildings dating to the 18th century and later. Documentary evidence suggests that there was a public house on this site from 1828-1829. However, evidence from this evaluation suggests that the building was used as a drinking establishment from an earlier date. See <1> for full details.
