The Bull

Picture source: Stephen Harris


The Bull was situated at 1 Chipperfield Road. This pub  is the subject of a planning application involving demolition and replacement with new residential units.
 
 In 1881 there are details in the census that Thomas Alfred Bruin b 1851 in London was the licensee of the Bull along with his wife Sarah Jane.  Thomas Bruin emigrated to Canada in about 1883 along with his 2 children Leonard Ernest and Thomas Archibald.  Thomas came from a line of victuallers as his grandfather was licensee of the Golden Lion in St Johns St near Smithfield and his father was licensee of the the Old Prince of Orange pub in Gravesend in 1871 census.
