TQ2177 : Entrance to Brewery
near to Chiswick, Hounslow, Great Britain

Entrance to Brewery
Fuller's Brewery is immediately to the right, but doesn't take as nice a picture. Fuller's Brewery was founded as the Lamb Brewery and was certainly in business in 1790 when the brewers were John Sich and William Thrale. The firm expanded and in 1920 was taken over by the Isleworth Brewery Co. which soon became part of Watney, Coombe, Reid & Co.
The building in the photograph, now known as Lamb Cottage, was the Lamb Tap, the brewery's 'on-site' pub. Out of shot, to the right of the brewery entrance, is Old Burlington, formerly the Burlington Arms, which was also owned by the brewery.(1) The locals certainly had a convenient choice of places to drink.
In 1861 the publican was Thomas William Goford. By 1881 he had died but his wife Emma carried on the trade.(2)
The Lamb Tap closed in 1920, and the Burlington Arms in 1923.(1)
