TWO OLD BREWERS


Location:- Albion Street



Brewery or Owner:- last..Star Brewery, Cambridge



The Two Old Brewers took up about half of the eastern side of Albion Street, from next door to the Albion Stores towards Market Street.It was one of those chosen for closure just before WW1 as the ward of St Mary's had too many beer outlets,(about one for every 100 man, woman and child)

Closed and sold in 1913 and seems to have become an un-licensed lodging house
