McMullen
The house was acquired in 1737 by William King of Walkern and it seems that he was the person responsible for the rebuilding and the addition of a bowling green which are mentioned in a document of 1740. During the 19th century a blacksmith’s shop formed part of the building and there was also a brewhouse. [Extract from Hertfordshire Inns and Public Houses: An Historical Gazetteer.
