Property description
Location
Reminders of its village days, Shephall Green boasts a medieval church, old pub and some centuries-old cottages all located on the green. Written in the Domesday Book of 1086, the parish of Shephall was recorded as the Saxon “Escepehale”, meaning ‘a corner of land where sheep are pastured’. In Medieval times, Shephall villagers fought against the poll tax of the young King Richard II in 1381 by joining the Peasants Revolt.
Shephall Green has long been at the heart of former village life. Infact, you can still see where the old village well once was on the green. A warm friendly community atmosphere, contributes to an attractive location, ideal for the family.
Adjacent to the Green is St. Mary's Church. The interior roof of the church is believed to date from the late 14th/early 15th century & contains one of the oldest bells in Hertfordshire – an impressive 800 years old.
