Description:The head office of the former Lichfield Brewery Co. Ltd., dates from around 1876–1877. It was designed by George Scammel, a consulting engineer and architect who had specialist knowledge of the brewery process.

During 2025–2026, this building became the registered office and showroom for Glazeright Lichfield. Note the war memorial built into the wall to the left of the bay-window and the poppy design, included by Glazewright, into the two windows to the left of the memorial. Two 'Poppy' memorial wreathes have been positioned below the memorial plaque

The bridge abutment on the right, originally built for the South Staffordshire Railway in 1849, was reconstructed in 1884 retaining the carved heraldic shields.
