The Bull Inn is at the centre of Cavendish in West Suffolk, with the front entrance on the main road. There is a large car park to the rear of the Inn, and access to park land and fields behind. Cavendish is on the north bank of the River Stour, just a few miles west of Long Melford our nearest shopping high street, and close to Sudbury our main municipal centre.
 
Some history
Cavendish was home to Sir John Cavendish, the ancestor of the Dukes of Devonshire, who was involved in the Peasants' Revolt. In 1381 his son had put to death Wat Tyler, the peasants' leader. As a result, John Cavendish tried to flee from the pursuing peasants and he hung on to the handle of the door of St Mary's Church, Cavendish, to plead sanctuary. His plea was in vain, and he was taken to Bury St Edmunds and beheaded by a mob headed by Jack Straw. He is buried in Bury St Edmunds. St. Mary's Church had a bequest from Sir John, and its chancel was restored.
