The Old Brewers Yard

The Old Brewers Yard is a brewery house from the former Golden Lion Brewery, dating from around 1820. It is constructed of plum brick with lighter red arches and a stucco plinth and dressings. The building features a hipped slate roof with a plastered soffit overhanging the eaves.

This symmetrical, double-pile, double-fronted house faces south and has two storeys with three windows wide and a central entrance. It has a high stucco plinth, a plat-band, and paired brackets at the eaves soffit, along with V-jointed rusticated toothed quoins. The tall recessed sash windows have 8/8 panes and plastered reveals. The plat-band of stucco is only present at the front, aligning with the blocking course of the entablature of the stucco Doric doorcase, which features three-quarter columns. The entrance has a six-panel door with flush-beaded bottom panels and moulded panels above, topped by a rectangular fanlight and accessed by two stone steps.

The garden front on the west side is two windows wide and includes French windows. There is also a lower brick outhouse with stucco quoins set back at the northeast corner.
