This Art Deco building was the head office of Tetley's Brewery for decades, its lettering still proudly declaring it "The Home of Tetley's" from the roofline. The brewery closed in 2011; today the building is a free contemporary art gallery, and the old loading bay out front is a beer garden again — just with better-behaved beer.
