The Bull was severely damaged by fire
during the night of 13 February 1990.
During its restoration, the various
developments of the building have
been identified, the earliest
portions dating back to about 1400.
The large open fireplace hides
an old 'priest hole'.

The George and Dragon is the youngest
of the public houses in the village.
The earliest known reference is in 1619

The suffix for the village (-at-Stone)
dates from the early 13th century and
is derived from the presence of two
large examples of Hertfordshire
puddingstone, now situated
at the Waggon and Horses public house.
