Brewery House

Brewery House is a house, likely built in the late 17th century, with early and late 19th-century alterations. It features red brick construction and part timber framing. The building has bracketed eaves, a plain clay tile roof, and a central brick stack. There are full-height rear wings that are partly tile-hung and set at right angles. The house has three storeys and three bays, with window openings that have brick voussoirs and sash windows. The ground floor originally had round arched arcading for both flanking windows, as depicted in 19th-century prints, but now only the right-hand window retains this feature.

In the centre, there are six stone steps, one of which is curved, leading to a central doorway that has a six-panel door, a rectangular overlight, and a 19th-century ashlar doorcase. To the left, there is a late 19th-century canted bay window on both the ground and first floors. The centre and right-hand first-floor sash windows have glazing bars, while the second floor features 19th-century sash windows on the left and right, with a blind opening in the centre. The ground and first floors also have late 19th-century or early 20th-century timber-framed and gabled extensions against the right-hand return.

Inside, there is a six-panel door to the lobby and possibly dado panelling. The front ground floor rooms have late 19th-century fireplace surrounds, with the west room featuring semi-elliptical arches flanking the fireplace, a central bridging beam, and an 18th-century cornice. The east first-floor room has a stopped and chamfered bridging beam and a 19th-century wood fireplace surround, while the west first-floor room also has a bridging beam. There are 19th-century six-panel doors and two arches on the landing. An 18th-century staircase with turned balusters and a contemporary handrail leads to the second floor. The west room on the second floor has dado panelling, an 18th-century to 19th-century fireplace surround, an old ledged door, and exposed framing in the west end wall, along with old wide floorboards. The east second-floor room has an old planked door and a two-fielded panel door. The rear second-floor rooms have exposed timber wall framing and an old planked door. This house served as the head brewers' residence and is depicted in 19th-century illustrations of the brewery.
