exploits this and the slope of the land to considerable effect. 4 storeys.
Exterior Front: (to High Street) : regular 9-window range; 9 round-headed 2-light
windows to all floors which are divided by plan bands. Some of the windows are
blocked and a C20 entrance has been inserted. The corner is polygonal, with a
similar round-headed 2-light window to each facet; the top tier of windows is
blocked; date stone set high ('Built W.A.D.F.1858) under a parapet stringcourse
supported on shaped brackets. The south elevation, also of 9 bays, is almost
identical to the High Street front, with the addition of a basement; there are
several late C20 alterations to this side of the buildings. Interior not inspected.
The Old Brewery is a prominent landmark in Uffculme, and was visible from The Mount
(q.v.), the brewer's house, sited a little to the north.
