Norwich Brewers

Saint Stephen's

1 - 4


2. Massey : 3. Johnson : 4. Fellowes

1. : Richard Crawshay

St. Stephen's Street.
The brewery was in Stamp Office Yard, St. Stephen's,
and was an important concern.
Crawshay owned the Duke of Wellington as late as 1845.

In that same year, according to the 1845 Official List,
there were no less than 25 houses tied to the brewery.

The brewery had been purchased in 1834 from
Isaac Johnson (see 3. below).

 

When Crawshay left, in 1851, to join Young's Brewery
in King Street, the brewery was sold to Alfred S. Miller,
after an auction in January 1851.

Miller had moved from Catton by September,
but was apparently unsuccessful; and the brewery
was again up for sale in October 1852.
