History of Old Anglo Brewery

The Old Anglo Brewery in Shepton Mallet, Somerset was built in 1864. During the construction workers discovered Roman pottery kilns and Severn Valley Ware from the 1st or 2nd century AD on the site, proving the location was an industrial hub over 1,800 years ago.
In 1872, the brewery was renamed the "Anglo-Bavarian Brewery" and employed specialized brewers from Bavaria to create a German-style lager, a product largely unknown in Britain at the time.
The brewery was incredibly successful, exporting 1.8 million bottles of beer annually across the British Empire. However During World War I, the inclusion of "Bavarian" on their bottles made them unpatriotic, leading to the brewery's eventual downfall in 1921.

Between 1868 and 1921, the brewery actually operated its own fire brigade, which served the entire town of Shepton Mallet. They notably helped fight the 1904 fire at the famous Shepton Mallet Prison.

In 1939, the Air Ministry requisitioned the site and removed and destroyed much of the industrial machinery and copper vats and melted down for scrap metal to support the war effort.

Ghostly Activity

What Happens at the Event

Our events are always 100% investigation and vigil events, we won't waste time by taking you on a history tour of the venue.

We will not usually talk about the history of the building unless people ask us to do so.
We don't hold workshops or briefing on equipment usage. Any equipment that you will be using throughout the event will be explained at the start of each session by our team leaders.

For the first few hours (usually 1 hour per session) you will be in a group and you will spend time with our Mediums¹ doing séances, where they will try to get the active spirit to move you in some way (this is not designed to scare you) and with our paranormal investigators doing experiments, table tilting, glass divination, Ouija boards, EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena a.k.a. ghost voice) experiments and other equipment experiments using the latest ghost hunting equipment.

After these controlled sessions you will have the opportunity to venture off on your own or in small groups to explore the venue or to hold lone vigils or re-visiting an activity that you enjoyed in our controlled sessions. In this part of the night you can use our ghost hunting equipment to do your own ghost hunt. You may take photos/videos with your own cameras throughout our ghost hunts. You may also use any of your own ghost hunting equipment during our controlled sessions.
¹ A Medium may not be available at every event, please contact us for clarification.
