Did a bit more on the brewery today. Had a look, with the aid of Google Earth, at some of the older breweries around the country and came to the conclusion that I needed a brewery yard. Not completely practical to have it surrounded by building where it was sited, so I am going for the layout in the pictures below. Another kit has been added, a Vollmer kit from an earlier layout. A little work to do on it, like a new roof and a lick or two of paint. The boiler house was removed and now resides around the back.

The stables.

The boilerhouse around the back of the main brewhouse. A large coalstore will be here and access will be to the left of the buildings in the next shot.

General view of the site.

Have to change the name on this one. And I must add that the end wall is not attached to the building yet.

The entrance will be in the centre of this shot.

 

Must adjust the colour balance on the camera, the blue is too strong. The vehicles belonging to the brewery are actually green(Citadel Scaly Green) and the blue brick is blue grey.

 

And one that a relative sent me from their file of family photo's.

This is in the yard af Wilkins Bros Brewery in Newtown, Bradford on Avon. But not sure who is who.
