Bull and Mouth Inn

It became the Queen's Hotel in 1830 but was demolished in 1887 or 1888 when new post office buildings were built in St Martin's Le Grand.

The street took its name from the inn and was first recorded on John Ogilby and William Morgan's Large Scale Map of the City As Rebuilt By 1676.

[3] The hotel was demolished in 1887 or 1888 and new post office buildings at 1 St Martin's Le Grand erected on the site in 1890–1895.

[4] A terracotta statuette of a bull inside a gaping mouth, above which is the bust of King Edward VI and the arms of Christ's Hospital to which the ground belonged,[citation needed] once graced the front of the Queen's Hotel but has since been removed to the garden of the Museum of London at nearby London Wall.

[11] It bears the inscription: probably in reference to Milo of Croton,[11] an ancient Greek wrestler and strongman sometimes depicted as carrying a bull on his shoulders.
