We opened in July 2013 and here are some of the reasons why we chose S&P In 1927 major Norfolk brewers, Steward & Patteson, sold a piece of land to one of their barrel makers, Albert Davis. He built a bungalow for himself upon it. Albert used a disproportionate amount of oak in his construction, which I've always assumed came from his brewery workshop. I bought the bungalow and accompanying two acres of land in 1983 & have lived here with my family ever since. Having been a keen home brewer for longer than I care to remember it has long been a hope that one day a link could be made back to the history of the property and it could become the home of a new brewery. After a long struggle to get planning permission the green light was finally given. Having a bore well on site, which meant I could avoid using Anglian Water's chloraminated mains water supply, strengthened my case for locating the brewery here rather than on a local industrial site. A new 15 x 9 metre building was erected & a 10 barrel brew plant installed. Trade mark approval for S&P was granted & in the summer of 2012 the brand was resurrected.
