Wrekin Ales Pubs in and Around Shropshire Synopsis

The Wrekin Brewery of Wellington, Shropshire, was in business for 100 years from 1870 until 1969. Of all the breweries in east Shropshire, it was the most successful. From 1929, the brewery actively pursued a programme of public-house acquisition which resulted in an unprecedented area being provided with its award-winning ales, stretching to include towns throughout Shropshire, Herefordshire and Powys. Most of the photographs included in the book have never been published. and are supplemented by chapters revealing a brief history of the brewery and the nature of its public houses.
