The Trust is working on exciting plans to create a new brewing heritage visitor experience in Burton upon Trent.

Partnering with East Staffordshire Borough Council we have been working together throughout 2024 on plans to develop Bass House on the High Street. The aim is to create a visitor attraction that will become the national hub of British brewing and pub heritage, which will also be the permanent home for the Archive.

In the autumn of 2024 we were able to share the project concepts and design imagery with members of the general public in a series of public events. Feedback across all the events has been very encouraging.

We are excited by the plans and believe the development promises to make Burton upon Trent the national hub of British brewing and pub heritage. We will continue to play an active part in this exciting project.

If you would like to be kept up to date with these plans as they progress, please send your email address to jenny.procter@breweryheritage.com
