Background
History
Across the town, many plaques displaying 'West Country Ales- Best in the West- 1760' are situated on the walls of buildings. These were given to pubs at the time in relation to Stroud Brewery. In 1958, Stroud & Cheltenham Breweries merged to form West Country Breweries Ltd, and the plaques were replaced to say 'West Country Ales'. The 1760 date shown is in relation to the year that both Stroud Brewery and Cheltenham Brewery were established. These plaques can be seen outside The Crown, Market Place, Ram Inn (pub now closed), Swan Inn at West End (pub now closed), Trumpet Inn at West End (pub now closed).
