HISTORY

The Bull is one of Ludlow's oldest buildings. The earliest mention on record is 1343 when it was known as Peter the Proctor's House. However, it probably dates back to the construction of St. Laurences Church in 1199. Looking from the courtyard the building is Tudor in style, but from the front the style is Georgian. This is because of a fire in 1795 resulting in the facade being rebuilt.

Strange occurrences

In the mid-1970s, when major alterations were being done, the builders found a priest hole and steps leading into the Churchyard. Mysterious footsteps which have been heard are often attributed to a priest checking up on the occupants of "his house". He seems to have made a few visits to newcomers in recent years!

The previous licensees, Phil and Sally Maile, have also experienced strange events: Sally has seen a little girl at the foot of the bed and heavy fire doors often go bump in the night!
