Description

Black and white photo image of the former Ice House. Due to the cold temperatures needed throughout the brewing process, many brewers chose to invest in their own ice-making facility rather than pay for ice from an outside source. The ice house on Front Street supplied the breweries of Portsmouth with ice for their brewing.
