Shepherd's Close and Front Railings

Shepherd's Close is a house dating from the mid-18th century. It is constructed of red brick in header bond, set on flint sills, and features a tiled roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, arranged in three bays with a central stair hall plan. The entrance includes a six-panelled door with an overlight and shaped glazing bars, sheltered by a small pent canopy. The windows are twelve-paned sashes set in painted reveals, topped with 37-centimetre gauged brick lintels. The house has a plat band and cogged eaves.

There is a 20th-century two-storey canted bay window on the south-east gable end, and the roof is half-hipped with a small 20th-century dormer at the rear. The rear wing is a single storey with an attic, featuring two bays on the right and a single-storey wing on the left that has a lateral stack and casement windows. The space between these wings has been filled in with a 20th-century hipped roof extension.

In front of the house, there is a garden enclosed by iron railings, which alternate between hooped and spear-headed rails, with anthemion finials on the stanchions.
