When I was at Stitch and Bitch the other night, we got talking to the lady who runs the Swan (who was having a well earned sit down after a hard day when half her staff seemed to be off with the Dreaded 'Lergy). She told us that she and her husband have bought the Bull's Head.
Her husband likes to cook, but the Swan's restaurant is on too large a scale for him, so the Bull's Head would suit him much better. They plan to live up there, rather than have rooms to let out, as the last people there did (who disappeared, trailing their debts behind them). They need to install an entire new kitchen, as the last owners sold everything off that wasn't nailed down, by the sound of it. What's holding them up at the moment is the building work - one of the builders has broken his leg, poor man.
They intend to leave the old bar area, with the hatch in the wall, exactly as it was, which is good news for fans of old, character-full pubs.
