The Foundry (formerly Goldwyns)

The foundry formerly goldwyns photograph

Situated in Beak Street. This was known as Goldwyns Nightclub before it changed to become The Foundry. As Goldwyns it opened in 1989 as a nightclub hosting cabaret acts and aimed for a more upmarket audience.

However, it really became known as a gig venue for national and international stars - Nirvana(1990), Crowded House and Blur (1991) for example.

It went into a name change, becoming The Foundry which became a venue for indie and punk bands. The site has since become an office block.
