Brewing in Manchester and Salford, Paperback / softback Book

Brewing in Manchester and Salford Paperback / softback

Part of the Brewing series

Paperback / softback

Description

Manchester and Salford, two cities whose heritage is intricately entwined, are noted for their industrial history, and this book looks at their thriving brewing industry.

The reader is taken on a journey of its development from the late eighteenth century to the present day.

Key brewers in the locality, including Boddingtons, Wilsons, Joseph Holt, Groves & Whitnall and Threlfalls Chesters, are featured.

This book also tells the story of the decline of the brewing industry in the region during the twentieth century, including the much-publicised takeover of Boddingtons and the closure of Strangeways Brewery, and the subsequent revival in the form of newly emerging microbreweries. Deborah Woodman documents the region’s brewing history through a fascinating selection of rare images and informative text.
