Royal Albert Brewery, Tower Street, Ramsey

Archaeology

The site of a brewery which is shown on the Ordnance Survey's 1:2500 scale map of 1870, which names it as the 'Royal Albert Brewery'.  The building was located on Tower Street.  It is likely to have been named in honour of the visit of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert in 1847, and the latter's ascent of the hill 1km to the south, which was further marked by the erection of the Albert Tower in 1848. The brewery company was dissolved in 1923. The site is now partially occupied by a modern office building.
