England - Breweries

The Anchor Brewery was a brewery in Southwark, London, England. Established in 1616, by the early nineteenth century it was the largest brewery in the world. From 1781 it was operated by Barclay Perkins & Co, who merged with Courage in 1955 to form Courage Barclay & Co. The main brewery closed in 1958, but the Lager plant continued brewing into the 1970's before the brewery was demolished in 1981.

Below are some notes to help identify some of these changes and an aid to reference the year of the glass.
