==History==
The original Royal Bull’s Head Inn was built by ex-convict William Horton at Drayton, by 1847. The slab–built inn with shingled roof, served as an important meeting place for local squatters. The inn was large and well equipped with a parlour and all the requirements for a constant stream of visitors, including travellers, clergymen, settlers and anyone travelling to the area from the coast. (2) On 20 August 1848 the Rev. Benjamin Glennie conducted his first Church of England service on the Darling Downs, at the Royal Bull's Head Inn.〔〔(The History of the Church of England in Queensland ), PhD thesis, Keith Rayner, 1962. p. 26〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Rev. Benjamin Glennie - Apostle of the Downs )〕 In 1859 William Horton the proprietor of the inn and the surrounding land, and added a large extension made out of brick, cedar and timber. The entire inn was beautifully furnished and was regarded as the best on the Darling Downs,〔 and better than some in Brisbane and Ipswich.
William Horton died in 1864 (2) and the inn’s furnishings were sold at auction in 1865. The hotel was then managed by a succession of businessmen, including Timothy Larkin, Samuel Mann and Henry Neale. In 1875 most of the original building and the stables were sold for removal leaving only the 1859 extension and the original kitchen remaining.(1) These are the buildings which are standing today.
In 1879 just over 30 years after the inn was established Thomas Price Horton, William Horton’s son sold the inn to Richard Stephen Lynch a saddler, and his wife Sarah Neale, daughter of Henry Neale. The Lynch family renamed the Royal Bull’s Head Inn "The Terrace" (1.) and it became their private residence for more than 90 years. The Lynch family also ran the Drayton Post Office in the building for 60 years (2)and the office remained there until 1952 when Frances Lynch daughter of Richard and Sarah retired. In 1973 the last surviving son, Mr Alan Campbell Lynch, died and the National Trust of Queensland acquired the building. (2)
