Terraced four-bay three-storey brewery, built c.1880, with rendered crenellated parapet. Now in use as offices. Rendered walls, roughcast to ground and first floor, with string course below parapet. Segmental-headed openings, some blind to top floor, having recent limestone sills and replacement windows to second floor, timber casement windows and square-headed double timber sliding sash one-over-one pane windows to first floor, and square-headed one-over-one pane timber sliding sash window to ground floor. Render round-headed arch with replacement glazing and render imposts and surround, flanked by square-headed door openings with render surrounds and replacement doors.

This crenellated building offers variety of style and height to the streetscape. It retains much of its original form, its segmental-headed openings being distinctive and typical of industrial buildings. Formerly the Murphy brewery, this building formed a significant part of the town's social and industrial heritage. Like the former brewery building on New Quay, it retains its castellated parapet.
