TL7523 : Steven Sykes Sculptured Panel, Brewhouse, Sainsbury's, Drury Lane, Braintree

Steven Sykes Sculptured Panel, Brewhouse, Sainsbury's, Drury Lane, Braintree

One of three panels in the Drury Lane "Food and Drink" group, hops and strong beer were the pride of Braintree and maltings and oast houses were found all round the town. The church fields and oast houses all appear in an 1832 engraving from the Notley Road. The large Brewhouse shows the beer being stirred with large paddles and dates from 1764. Can you see the cats and mice brewing their own beer?
