The Old Brewery is a refurbished Grade II listed building which has been sympathetically and comprehensively refurbished and converted to provide 12 homes plus 4,720 sq ft of characterful ground floor office space very much in line with the type of space demanded by many Lewes based occupiers.
The large courtyard to the south allows room for parking and turning. Four car bays are allocated to the offices (two for Office Unit One and two for Office Unit Two).
A pedestrian link through to Davey's Lane allows permeability to the retail and commercial facilities in Brooks Road.
