About one hundred and fifty years ago George Bright was the Proprietor of the Bull Public House at Shepperton.

The Bull, now situated on the corner of Sheepwalk and Laleham Road, was originally situated some 200 years back in Sheepwalk, close to where the flyover crosses the M3 Motorway

The original building was demolished and the pub now stands in the present location.

The Bull derives its name from the Coat of Arms of the Wood family, who were lords of the manor of Littleton from the late 17th century to the late 19th century. By 1839, the Bull had already become one of the most popular pubs in Shepperton and was listed in Piggots Directory for that year.

The mid 1800's saw the popularity of the pub increase under the proprietorship of George Bright.

The Bull's main customers were the employees and tenants of the Wood family, whose land almost encircled the area where the pub was sired.

Shepperton was well known in the district for its abuldance of gurrying sheep. Not surprisingly the Bull became a focal point and meeting place for shepherds as well as passing drovers who rested and partook of refreshments at the pub.
