The John Lovibond Brewery. With the condition of the Public houses all needing refurbishment that had been put off by WW2, Ale ceased to be brewed here in 1959, and the company image was changed to that of wine merchants with retail shops, and the brewery was substantially redeveloped to provide wine cellars and warehouses, and wine bottling lines. Acquired by Wine Ways Supermarkets Ltd. in 1968, at which time there were 104 Lovibond's wine shops. Many later became 'Victoria Wine' off-licences. '
