I am just wondering if you can help me.  I have come across a few old bottles which I used to collect. In with them was the one I have sent an image of,  can you tell me anything about it as I am having no luck on the internet. 

Your help and knowledge would be most helpful,

Yours faithfully,

    I replied as follows:

    Thank you for your query
    I am copying it to two colleagues who know far more than I do, but I am pretty sure it is from the Alton Court Brewery Co Ltd, Station Road Ross on Wye
    Founded 1846, registered 1865. Acquired by the Stroud Brewery co Ltd 1956 and was closed. Liquidated May 1961. In 2005 the buildings were part of a supermarket

    The Stroud Brewery co was eventually subsumed into the Whitbread empire. There archive has closed and records were returned to the appropriate local record offices.

    Would you mind if I uploaded your query on to our Blog in case other members can add more?
    Kind regards
    Jeff
