historical era: ancientWe know very little about this pub except a reference in a 1779 edition of the Ipswich Journal as follows:
To be sold, the Black Bull in Beccles, together with a compleat set of brewing utensils sufficient to wet 7 comb of malt....Enquire of James Cockrill, the present tenant.Ipswich Journal, 13 Nov 1779***
This may possibly be an alternative name for the Bull, later known as the Angel.
