Brandauer Court

I thought an update about our old factory would be a great way to start 2011 and I have been fortunate enough to have been supplied with the following by the new owners, all subject to planning permission:

"We're in the process of clearing the rubbish in the building from top to bottom as we speak, and have yet to start any builders work as we are in talks with conservation architects re. what we can and can't do.

We intend to re-vitalise the initial intention of converting the front and middle section along with the 'new wing' into a hotel.  The back section of the building and boiler house we hope can be turned into a college of food and leisure along [with a] micro brewery where students will be taught to brew traditional beers and wine, as micro brewing is becoming more and more popular, as well as other areas like bar keeping, hotel management, licence holders, chefing etc.

Brandauer Court has a nice ring to it, but not sure if it's stuck yet ..."

Personally I am delighted that the new owners hope to incorporate various functions in the renewal of our old factory building and wish them loads of success with the project which I shall watch eagerly - it is just so exciting. 

I will post any further information I receive on this Blog to keep everyone up-to-date - so watch this space.

Happy New Year to everyone, too!
