| Full Description: View of Crowley's (Watney's) Tower from the north east. In 1763 the Baverstocks built a brewery on this site and operated it until 1821 when it was bought by Abraham Crowley. The Crowley's expanded the business and opened their Alton Ale shops in London but in 1877 the Burrell's bought the brewery though they retained the name Crowley's.The Burrell's also rebuilt and expanded their brewing premises and the brewing tower was built in 1901and demolished in 1975. Watney's took over in 1947 and continued to brew there until 1970 when it became a distribution depot. In 1992 the brewery became the site of the Sainsbury' s store. |
