The pub to the right of the picture is the "Black Bull" which gave the area it's name (we can assume that there would have been a bridge across the river by the pub at some point in time.) The pub, was of course, the oldest pub in Accrington and arguably the oldest building. Naturally, it was demolished in the early 80's to make way for the Arndale.
