Currently the Gales Tower is in very poor condition with the silhouette of demolition remaining from the adjacent buildings, but is expected to be fully restored and built into the final scheme.

Sadly, the tanks and equipment in the tower has long since been stripped out and relocated.
There will be future posts about the floor plans for the brewery and some great photographs from the late 1800’s and very early 1900’s including a steam truck and postcard views of the village.
