Notes: The "Old Bull's Head" listed in Sun Fire Office Insurance records as being "near the Surrey Canal" (now the Surrey Basin) is presumably the same pub as is later listed as the "Great Bull's Head". Not to be confused with the "Half Moon and Bull's Head" very nearby at 238 Rotherhithe St (see separate entry).
