Description
The Old Brewhouse, located at Bourton House in Bourton-on-the-Hill, is a detached store that was originally a bakery. It dates back to the late 16th century and was built for Richard Palmer. The structure is made of large coursed squared and dressed limestone blocks, topped with a 20th-century concrete tile roof featuring limestone gable end coping and an ashlar stack. The building has a rectangular plan and is a single storey high.
The windows are arranged irregularly, including a stable-type single window with wooden ventilation slits on the far left, a 6-light stone mullioned casement with unusually tall diamond leaded lights, and a central plank door with cover strips set in a flat-chamfered surround. To the right of the door, there is a 3-light stone-mullioned casement with a stopped hood. Braces are positioned on either side of the door, and the left corner of the building is cut away to incorporate a ball finial. The flat gable end coping features roll-cross finials, and there is a single stack located off centre to the right.
