Description

The structure is marked on the Ordnance Survey Maps of 1875 and 1899 as a brewery, but the name and owner are unknown. Additionally, on the mount for this print, it is named as 'Old House'.

The building was located on the east bank of the river and south of the Lewes Bridge, but was demolished sometime between 1899 and 1910.
