Description
Paine's Brewery is an 18th-century building located on the south side of Market Square in St Neots. It stands three storeys tall and features four windows. The brewery is constructed from red brick with stone dressings and has a tiled roof. A stone cornice with a parapet sits atop the building. The windows are square-headed and recessed, adorned with stone architraves that have ears and key blocks on the ground and first floors, and they include glazing bars. At the eastern end, there is a carriageway with a semi-elliptical rusticated arch. A doorway with an architrave is located on the return through the carriageway and has a hood above it. The brewery is part of a range of associated buildings at the rear, which form two parallel courtyards extending back to the river bank. This range is included in the description of nos. 32, 34, and 36 Market Square. Part of this range is also attached to no. 38 Market Square. The buildings from nos. 16 to 46 (even) form a group.
