SHEPHALL GREEN
Shephall Green is a surviving 14C medieval village area to the south east of Stevenage first mentioned in the Domesday Book that now lies within the New Town neighbourhood of Shephall which was constructed in 1953. It now forms the majority of Shephall Conservation Area formed in 1973 and extended in 2007 compromising the original village green and the settlement directly around it including buildings dating from the medieval period (such as St. Mary's Church) to the late twentieth century; almost all these properties face on to the green reinforcing its position as an attractive green space and focal point. There are a large number of trees upon the Green and throughout the conservation area. Hedge boundaries, grassed areas and front gardens combined with a local school, public house and church all help to preserve the village feel.
