Sluice Bridge warehouse

This warehouse was built in the late 18th. Century next to the Grand Sluice. It was broken up into four units and river craft stopped here and unloaded their goods instead of going through the lock.


For a number of years it was used by Beeson’s the glaziers (whose sign still remains there) and has now been converted into living accommodation with a bar/cafĂ© at one end named The Jolly Sailor.
