The Brewery

Stanway House, situated between Winchcombe and Broadway, is one of the most attractive manor houses in the Cotswolds. When the present house was built during the reign of Elizabeth I a brewery was embodied, as was not uncommon at the time.

Having lain idle for many years, the old brewery has been resurrected by brewer Alex Pennycook with consent from Lord Neidpath, the owner of Stanway House.

Integrated into the brewhouse are two coppers built over log fires. Stanway is one of only two log fired breweries in the country. The open cooler is still present although used only for storage now, the rest of the equipment being newly installed.
