Description
Plymouth Gin Distillery is the oldest working distillery in England. It has been making Plymouth Gin ccording to the original recipe since 1793.
The building dates back to the early 1400. The most intact part is the Refectory Room is a medieval hall with a hull shaped roof built in 1431 and is one of the oldest buildings in Plymouth.
The Pilgrim Fathers spent their last night in England here in 1620.
Plymouth is Englands Ocean City. Situated on Englands South coast on the east bank of the River Tamar which divides Devon from Cornwall. It has a history that goes back beyond Elizabethan times as an important sea port. It has been home to many historic people including Sir Francis Drake who allegedly completed a game of bowls after being told that the Spanish Armada was on its way. It is also famous for the Pilgrim Fathers setting sail for the new world on the Mayflower. It has so much history that it would take volumes to describe its past and current day. Other than to say it is still a thriving naval port with old and new alongside each other.
