Description
The entrance building attached to the west of The Brewery House dates from around 1830 and faces the brewery yard. It features scored, stuccoed masonry and a Welsh slate roof. The two-storey, three-bay facade has a central elliptical archway leading to the yard, which is framed by a raised surround with chamfered rustication and a pair of 20th-century wrought-iron gates. To the left, there is a mid-19th century canted bay window, while to the right, there is a blocked window with a projecting sill. Above, three four-pane sash windows with projecting sills are present. The pedimented gable is adorned with moulded copings, shaped kneelers, and a circular clock face in the tympanum. An octagonal wooden louvred ventilator with pierced panels featuring Gothic details, an ogee cupola, and a spike finial sits on the ridge behind the pediment. The brewery buildings attached to the right and rear are not of special interest.
