Hardys and Hansons Brewery - Kimberley, Nottingham

[mrtoby]

Myself and Birdinanaviary did this as a last minute choice. We had been meaning to go a while back. Its a good mooch, way bigger than I expected and I don't think I have seen as much bird shit as in here-literally inches of it everywhere. We were in and back home by 9am-perfect. Not much here but still has some charm.

A little bit of info:
"The Kimberley Brewery was established and operated by the brewer Hardys & Hansons, and has a heritage dating from 1832. It was the last independent brewery in Nottinghamshire.
In 2006, The Hardys & Hansons Kimberley Brewery and all of its public houses were sold in a multi-million pound deal to Greene King brewery, who decided to end the brewing tradition in Kimberley in "a cost effective move" and will sell the Kimberley site, moving its distribution centre to Eastwood. Brewing will switch to the main Greene King site at Bury St Edmunds."

the pictures-sorry for fisheye but this lends itself to it...

Nice shots guys loved this place when I went did you find the bar?

[mrtoby]

I saw the bar above the warehouse-is that what you mean? It was sooo dark in there and I refuse to use flashes.

[Priority 7]
