In 1921 this building was the Cotswold Garage and was built after World war 1 from aircraft hangers originally built at Rendcomb Airfield for the Royal Flying Corp.Three hangers were dismantled and rebuilt in the town,one as The Cotswold garage,two as Bridges Garage that was adjacent to the Cotswold,and a third more as half the original size as Harmans Builders at the West end of Ashcroft Road and Sheep Street.It was in 1940 that Mycalex moved out of London due to the Blitz and took over the property until 1973. |

I have sincere doubts that the year 1921 is correct.The photograph shows the Bowling Green as a fully completed playing area but the club was not opened until 1930 and a further photo dated 1928 shows the position as a field that horses from the nearby Brewery used as grazing. |

Cirencester town centre from the SE. Cricklade Street at the bottom right. To the top left, the old Gloucester road, following the line of a Roman road, and to the top right, there are the houses around Bowling Green Lane and on The Whiteway, also a Roman road. |

The photograph dates after 1937 as it clearly depicts the new Cirencester Brewery office buildings located on Cricklade Street. This building replaced the former engine house and three large chimney stacks made redundant in 1937 when brewing ceased on this site. These can clearly be noted in photo number EPW022416 dated 1928. |
