Thompson’s Brewery Ltd. Studley

Thompson’s Bell Brewery was established in 1880 and lasted until the early 1960s when the business was acquired by Mitchells and Butlers. Thanks to Andrew for clarification, see below. The two Bell Ale labels at top are the same size, 83mm, and could have easily featured in our spot the difference section.

    M&B didn’t buy Thompson’s until abut 1962. Jack Thompson was my grandfather and I grew up above the Needlemaker’s Arms in Watts Road, Studley.
