Sign for the Black Bull
The colour black is a very common colour as far as pub names are concerned occurring in at least fifty different names.
It has been suggested that some 'black' names came about when the Gin Act of 1736 came into force, causing tavern owners to drape their signs in black velvet or add 'black' to the pub name.
Perhaps in view of this colour's association with mourning and other rather dreary states of mind, it is surprising that so many names make use of it.

Village scene, Great Smeaton
The name of Great Smeaton is thought to come from the Anglo-Saxon word Smideton meaning the 'smith's farm'. There is a late 19th century milepost against the wall.

Another pub gone?
It's not so long ago that Great Smeaton had two pubs, the Bay Horse and the Black Bull, but the Bay Horse closed a few years back and has been adapted as dwellings, whilst the Black Bull looks as though it could go the same way. On a short drive through several villages in the Vale of Mowbray I passed 4 pubs that were either closed or appeared to be so. A sad comment on village amenities.
