1. Introduction
This place has been on the urbex scene for ages. Not sure for how much longer as it's been scheduled for demo for some time now. But then again its demise was reported in The Star in August 2015 and its still standing. Since then it's been very quiet on the front of the brewery's future. Some stripping of metal etc has taken place and palisade fencing and razor wire installed making it far from the walk-in (or rather hop-over-the-fence) that it used to be. It's been trashed for years but the sheer size of the place, the views off the top and the top-notch graff make it worth a look.
2. The History:
I'll not do the history again but you can find it here on my original report.
