The Brewery is a most substantial building, and erected at great expense by the late Mr Eirkwood. The solid masonry composing the foundations, basement floor, and fine cool vaults and cellars, combined with the excellence of the situation for a manufacturing site, render it a very desirable investment. The complete Distilling Plant is to a great extent adapted for brewing,/ The engagement made with the Government for dis continuing dlitillation on 30th June, necestitates a speedy sale of the property, to enable the proprietors to wind up the business without delay.
