That's "Bessie Surtee's House", isn't it?  IIRC, the Cooperage is further upstream nearer the High Level Bridge Arch.

Fair enough. See above.

That was my bus to work until last November. They kept breaking down as the heaters would fail and the whole bus would condense it. A pain in the arse as the drivers won't drive with the doors open to clear the screen.
