Notes and Points of Interest

This is two properties, currently offices, being sold as one (the building is currently rated as one, but there are two freehold titles). There are two gas central heating systems in the building and separate electrical systems as well as 3 Phase power for the plant room and cooled server rooms. Number 1 was originally a brewery to The Windsor public house next door. It was subsequently converted to a carpet warehouse, two bedroom apartment, artists studio and workshop. It then became film production offices in 2000, housing a very well-respected advertising agency and film company with air conditioned edit suites, social / client areas and cooled server rooms. Due to the steel installed as part of the conversion, the internal spaces have largely non-structural partion walls which can be removed or changed. Number 2 High Street was previously a ground and first floor two bedroom house with alleyway garden. Originally it would have been the coach house for dray horses for the brewery in number 1 and was rebuilt over 50 years ago. It was converted by the film company in 2010 which included the removal of all existing floors and the insertion of steel frame into the shell plus and addition of a full size 3rd floor.
