Reed Close

Reed Close, formerly known as Reed Almshouses, is a 17th-century building located on Church Street in Bredon. It is constructed of dressed stone, with brick at the rear, and consists of three ranges arranged around a forecourt. The building is single storey with attics and features eight chamfered stone doorways that have four-centred arched heads and labels. There are also eight stone mullioned two-light windows, each with labels. The projecting ranges have gabled ends, one of which displays the arms of the founder. The property has machine tiles and modern brick stacks, along with a modern brick gable at the rear. In the central foreground, there is a modern or restored stone outbuilding with a pyramidal roof and lantern.
