Downsizing?
Starting up?

Recently we had some architects surveying the property, and as well as measuring everything they took lots of digital pictures.  Here is one of them that was in the middle of a sequence of 7.  None of the others showed any of this mysterious smoke.

If you look carefully you can just make out old Mr Nimmo at an angle at the left side of the picture, wearing a smoking jacket and a cravat.  When we showed this to the brewery staff they rushed off and retrieved an ancient book with a photo of old Mr Nimmo in the same smoking jacket, but wearing a tie, and sporting a moustache.  They say you can often smell his tobacco smoke - particularly on the stairs shown on our home page.  And there are reports of a figure huddled in the corner of those stairs, and even a rather gruesome pair of torso-less legs once seen ascending them.
