Answer 1

Star Brewery

The Star Brewery was a brewery in Romford, England. For much of its history, it was a main industry and a significant employer in the area. It was closed in 1993.

The site was redeveloped as a shopping centre named The Brewery, which opened in 2001. The brewery produced John Bull Bitter, named after the archetypal English farmer.

The brewery was founded in 1708 by Benjamin Wilson as an attachment to the Star Inn on the high street, then the main road to the City of London, and beside the River Rom. The brewery was purchased by Edward Ind in 1799, becoming part of Ind Smith and from 1845 the company was known as Ind Coope.

Romford railway station was opened to the south of the site in 1839 and was responsible for its considerable later expansion. By 1908, it had its own railway sidings and employed 450 workers; by 1970, it occupied 20 acres (81,000 m²) and had 1,000 workers. The brewery was closed in 1993 and demolished.

The site was redeveloped in 2001 as The Brewery shopping centre, with one of the 160 ft (50 m) chimneys incorporated into the design. Part of the site is used to house the Havering Museum.

In 1742 Samuel Whitbread formed a partnership with Godfrey and Thomas Shewell and they acquired a small brewery at the junction of Old Street and Upper Whitecross Street and another brewhouse for pale and amber beers in Brick Lane, Spitalfields. Godfrey Shewell withdrew from the partnership as Thomas Shewell and Samuel Whitbread bought the large site of the derelict King's Head brewery in Chiswell Street in 1750. The new brewery was for the production of porter, and was renamed the Hind Brewery after the Whitbread family coat of arms. From the outset, Whitbread was the leading financial partner, and solely responsible for management, and in 1761, Whitbread acquired Shewell's share of the business for £30,000. It was the largest brewery in the world by the 1780s. In 1796 the company produced 202,000 barrels of porter.

The firm struggled after the death of Samuel Whitbread Sr, and saw ownership transfer to his son, also called Samuel Whitbread.
