Outbuilding about 30 metres west of Higher Southtown Farm, Southtown Lane, West Pennard - Somerset Council (UA)
Early C17 timber-framed brewhouse later utilised as a cottage, now part calf shed/hay store. In poor condition due to lack of maintenance and beneficial use for many years. Emergency clearance and stabilisation works to the building have been undertaken by Mendip District Council. The site passed into new ownership in Spring 2020. Basic but urgent structural repairs were completed in Autumn 2021 grant aided by the Covic 19 Emergency Heritage at Risk Response Fund. Futher works are required.
