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?
