The Bruce Building (1896 - 1900)
Architect: Joseph Oswald
Location: Percy Street, Newcastle upon Tyne.
This is the clerk's office on the ground floor of the Newcastle Breweries head office. This is a large open plan room which was presumably once occupied by a number of clerical staff. It contains several elaborately decorated fireplaces and three magnificent tiled archways which open onto the main body of the room. The tile work in this room is more art nouveau in style than that within the foyer area.
