Although this pub is not on the London Regional Inventory, it is a Grade II listed building. Inside, the pub still has a sense of separate areas. The inter-war windows at the front include depictions of the eponymous dog and bull plus a ram and a horse. The listing description is as follows: “Early C18. Red brick. Three storeys, 7 sash windows with glazing bars (some blocked). Cut brick band between upper floors of No 25. Modern shop front and C19 Inn front to ground floor. Arch entry on left hand with brick basket arch filled with painted sign. Heavy wood modillion eaves cornice and hipped old tile roof.”

The Dog & Bull featured on the Daytime Crawl of Thornton Heath and Croydon in October 2008.
