Bulls head in the function room at Langtons House
It's logical to think that this is the emblem of Hornchurch, maybe due to the history of the leather tanning industry in the village, or perhaps because of a similar head adorning St Andrew's church a few hundred yards distance. See Image for its history.

Langtons House, Hornchurch
A late 18th century former country house and garden now surrounded by suburban London.
In 1929 the last family to live there left it to the local council, Hornchurch UDC at the time, which later merged into the London Borough of Havering.
It's now a popular wedding venue, with the garden open as a very pleasant public park.
