The Royal Victoria and Bull Hotel in Dartford, Kent is Dartford's oldest inn built in the 14th century and was probably owned by Dartford's Priory. The 'Bull' in the name refers not to the animal, but to 'bulla' – a seal, or a papal edict secured by a seal. The Inn's early name was the 'Holy Bull' – the holy seal or holy edict.
The Inn was rebuilt in 1703 with a gallery overlooking the yard, into which stagecoaches and carriages would enter through an entrance twice as wide as it is today.
The open yard was glazed over by the landlord in 1826 to provide a sheltered corn exchange. Over 100 years ago (1906), the workmen digging in front of the Royal Victoria and Bull Hotel at Dartford High Street in order to lay paving discovered the remains of the old town of Dartford. Unfortunately, most of the artefacts were damaged, the items that survived are now in Dartford Museum.
Famous guests have included, Cornish engineer Richard Trevithick who lived and died here. Her Majesty Queen Victoria stayed here in 1836, which then permitted the Hotel to use the Royal prefix.
A ghostly child (8 years old who died of turberculosis in the hotel) called Winifred makes her presence known by smashing glasses! Other reported sightings are that of a cigar smoking Cavalier and a phantom dog that likes to warm guests' feet. A phantom butterfly has also been seen in the hotel. Staff and hotel guests have also reporting hearing a phantom bell when ascending the front staircase to the first floor.
