Have you visited Mason’s Press yet? Two old warehouses in Woodstock have been cleverly converted and given a new lease of life. The space is now home to a mixture of offices and working studios. Mason’s Press does not have it’s own website which makes it difficult to find out what’s actually on offer. I decided to visit and discovered a creative, playful space with lots of potential.
It’s essentially more of a work space than a retail environment so don’t expect to shop up a storm! You can however grab a bite to eat The Mill & Press, enjoy a coffee at Baseline or have a drink at The Mash Tun in between having a wander around.
Remember that Mason’s Press is not open over weekends. Here’s a peak into what you’ll find…
THE SKINNY JUICE CO.
THE MILL & PRESS – Café and deli
WOODSTOCK CERAMIC STUDIO – consists of Jade Snell Ceramics, Ash Ceramics, Maureen Visagie and Sarah Benjamin. I treated myself to four of Jade’s stunning plates.
BIRBA FURNITURE
BASELINE COFFEE
BOTANE SKIN ACTIVES
PRESTWICH COLLECTION & MORO GELATO
BLACK FABRICS
THE MASH TUN – Craft beer, gin & wine bar

Was there a hairdresser in the Masons Press? Or am I getting confused with the foundry?

Hi Caleb
I didn’t see a hairdresser at Mason’s Press. There’s definitely one at the Foundry – The Lobby.

Masons press is a great location to launch your small business if you are in the creative industry. We have a very neat unit on the ground floor that is ideal for a small coffee shop, deli or art studio.
