Shepherds Peace

Shepherds Peace is an 18th-century house that was altered in the 19th century for the Pull Court estate. It is constructed of red brick and features a plain tile roof with a stack at the west end. The building is one storey high with an attic and includes three dormers. The eaves are decorated with brick dentils. The ground floor has openings with cambered heads, including a central door flanked by a modern single light and a three-light casement window in the original opening on each side. At the rear, there is a wing with decorative 19th-century bargeboards on the north gable, and the ground floor is recessed on the west side, supported by three carved timber posts that hold up a reused 15th-century carved bressumer. This bressumer features a Bear and Ragged Staff motif at one end and is reputed to have come from Payne's Place on Stokes Lane.
