Shepherds Close

Shepherds Close is a 17th-century building that was originally four cottages and converted in the 1930s. It features one and a half and two storeys, divided into three irregular sections made of rubble and ashlar-like rubble, topped with a Cotswold stone roof. The windows are arranged irregularly, including two and three light mullion windows with drips; two of the ground floor windows have king mullions, and one is transomed on the left. There are two dormer gables and a small gabled dormer. To the right, there is a full gable with a foiled upper light and a projecting two-storey gabled wing. The left-hand section has a gabled porch, and there is a bracketed flat hood over the door at the angle with the right-hand wing. The building is very picturesque.
