During the time of its construction, Number 40 Sheep Street has lived through many of our histories darkest times such as the Great Fire of Stratford, The Great Plague and of course the English Civil War.

It was during the 17th Century that the barn behind Shrieve’s house was station to a battalion from the Civil War, and that many murders took place within it’s walls due to a serial killer using this barn as his chosen location to commit his many crimes when it was used as a tavern and bawdy house.
