Description
Hele and Bradninch Goods Shed is a railway goods shed built around 1844, likely by one of Isambard Kingdom Brunel's assistants for the Bristol and Exeter Railway. The structure is made of coursed stone rubble and features a slate roof with overhanging bracketed verges at the gable ends and a ridge ventilator. It has a rectangular plan, with an office added to the northeast end around 1850-1860.
The symmetrical northwest front includes two large goods entrances with segmental arches and projecting eaves canopies above; these entrances are now filled in with corrugated iron sheet steel. There is a central round-arch window with glazing bars. Each gable end has a train entrance with a lintel and a louvred oculus in the gable above. The northeast gable end features a single-storey brick office with a gable-ended slate roof, round-arch windows, and a blocked doorway. The southeast elevation, which faces the track, has a blocked entrance at the center flanked by round-arch windows.
Inside, the shed has a boarded wooden common-rafter roof supported by iron ties and struts.
