still researching.....

At the time of writing, I've had no response to my request for any information on the Tomson and Wotton Brewery site. As I said previously there's nothing left on site apart from the alley name behind the school.

On my first 'net surfing' I've confirmed there was a 'brewery' on the site from1634. It would have been the oldest Kent brewery. The demolished buildings that made way for the supermarket were there from 1854 and closed when the site was sold in 1968.

I think I'll check the local paper archives of the time which should throw up something for about the time of demolision and development....
