TRADE CARD FOR EDWARD PETERS

A trade card of Edward Peters, Godstone Ale Brewery, has turned up on Ebay but described as circa 1895. This is incorrect as it is a much earlier relic - Edward Peters is listed as a brewer at Godstone in the 1839 Piggott's Directory. This is also confirmed in the 1841 census. However, by 1851 there is no longer any trace of the person nor of the concern.

I HAVE WRITTEN THE FOLLOWING PUBLICATION.

If you are interested in brewing and local history, then this new book could be just what you are looking for. It aims to reach the parts other histories don’t.

A BREWING HERITAGE: THE STORY OF BREWING IN REIGATE & REDHILL.

A 120 page book printed on glossy paper with a colour cover giving a very professional finish allowing the vast array of well captioned photographs of breweries, pubs, labels (old and new), plans, and various types of brewing ephemera used to be seen at their best. The book covers the development of the brewing industry in the area from mediaeval times to present day, giving details of how the trade developed and how current systems came to be.

ISBN 0-9540487-0-9 120pp; A4; b & w illus; softback.

Price £14.95, or including postage (UK only) £17.95
