The Westward Room and administrative offices reside in the Old Brewery house, a Georgian Grade II listed building, which gives the theatre its name.

Located under the characteristic saw-tooth roof of the modern wing, the Creative Hub is steeped in natural light and has its own sink facilities.

The Gallery is a versatile white cube, with high ceilings, good natural light and black-out facility; perfect for exhibiting visual arts, film, photography and sculpture.

The funds were intended for the installation of advanced audio-visual and satellite equipment to facilitate the live-streaming of global performances and the screening of various films.

Nonetheless, the amount collected demonstrated the community's commitment to enhancing Taunton's cultural landscape, and the cinema was installed and opened in February 2016.

It illustrates the challenges and possibilities of such initiatives in enriching local culture and community engagement, serving as a reference for similar future projects.

Despite the funding cuts, Taunton Theatre Association released a statement saying that they have shows booked through 2025 and 2026 and remain committed to serving as a cultural hub for the community.

The site on which the Old Brewery House stands was originally a field known as the Rack Hay, where cloth was stretched out to dry on the banks of the River Tone.

The design of the new theatre, featuring warm brown bricks and concrete dressings, complemented the historic Old Brewery House, which was repurposed to include a kitchen, bar, restaurant, and meeting rooms.

This expansion not only enriched the theatre's offerings but also repurposed the Old Brewery House for exhibition space and offices, cementing the site's status as a landmark in Taunton's civic and cultural landscape.
