Description

The Brewery House, now serving as the offices of Messrs. Whitbread, is a house dating from the mid-19th century. It features scored, stuccoed masonry and a roof made of large Welsh slates, along with rendered chimneys. The building is two storeys high and has four bays. The entrance is marked by a Tuscan doorcase that contains a 19th-century six-panel door, flanked by narrow single-light windows. To the right of the entrance, there is a canted bay window with segmental heads on the upper lights. The end bays project forward and also have identical canted bay windows on the ground floor. On the upper floor, there are four four-pane sash windows with projecting sills. The low-pitched hipped roof is topped with two ridge stacks that have ornamental cylindrical chimney pots.
