Brewery at Stockwell Green - name please?
« on: Sunday 09 July 06 11:44 BST (UK) »
In Stanford's 1862 map of London there's a medium-sized brewery located immediately to the west of Stockwell Green, present day SW9.  Here's a link to the map at the excellent Motco site - the brewery is at the right of the sheet, and not quite at the top.

Does anyone know the name of that brewery, and perhaps a little of its history?

Cheers,
Stovepipe
