Most people who have been on brewery tours would know that this is the old sugar desolving vessel, what most people don't see is the roof which was designed with gaps between the tiles to let the steam out when the coppers were in use. On snowy days when the wind was blowing from the wrong direction snow used to sift in through these gaps and the floor could become quite slippery at night.
