Built in the late 18th Century, but much modified in the 19th Century the brewery at Island Green had been derelict for over 20 years before Lawray in conjunction with their Developer Client started work on creating town centre appartments on the site. Key features such as the Oast Houses and Stables for the drey horses were preserved and have been sensitively adapted to provide a mix of one and two bedroom apartments and houses. Other buildings were more extensively remodelled and in addition a row of new terraced housing was incorporated to replace earlier unstable extensions. In total 34 new residences were created with secure courtyard parking and landscaped amenity areas. Lawray used Timber Frame Technology internally to fully convert the buildings to modern living standards, while the external appearance still retains the character of the original brewery buildings, which together with new sensitive adaptions has re-vitalised this historic part of Wrexham Town Centre.
