It is hard to determine when it was that the two houses, 12 & 13 became the tavern called the Brewery Shades. In the 1850’s they were still private houses, by the 1860’s they were occupied as a Wine and Spirit Merchants, and it seems likely that in the next decade a full licence was obtained. The lower photograph is interesting because it mentions Rock Ales, suggesting that at one period it was owned by Rock Brewery.
Photographed on 9 September 1973, the buildings were demolished in the following year.
