2011 : Shaftgate Avenue, Shepton Mallet
Off the A371 Commercial Road.
Would think it a residential development of the 1960's or 70's, these chalet bungalows are typical of the period.

2011 : Westleigh Gardens, Shepton Mallet
A cul-de-sac off Shaftgate Avenue.
These chalet bungalows are typical of the 1960's and 70's. Comfortable well-built houses but the roofs may need resurfacing after 20 years or more. Copper sheet is suggested if you can get it.
