\nThe Liverpool part of the business was established in 1818 on Crosbie Street.
\nThe Company traded as Thomas Threlfall & Co.
\nIn 1849 it purchased Lloyd & Garden’s brewery on Trueman Street and operated its two Liverpool breweries until 1860 when the Crosbie Street brewery was demolished.
\nIn 1861 Liverpudlian, John Mayor Threlfall, acquired the brewery of Lupton and Adamthwaite in Salford.<\/p>\n
\nIn 1895 Threlfall’s purchased the Blue Lion public house on Cook Street in Salford and built a new brewery on the site.
\nThe business traded successfully and in 1927 it acquired the West Cheshire Brewery Co. Ltd of Birkenhead with 67 public houses, and brewing there ceased.<\/p>\n
\nThe pretence was that the two businesses would operate independently, however full integration was completed in 1966 and the Ardwick Brewery was closed.
\nThe buildings were demolished in 1967.
\nThrelfall Chesters Ltd merged with the Birkenhead Brewery Co. Ltd in 1961 which owned both the Argyle Brewery and the Anchor Brewery. The Argyle Brewery closed immediately whilst the Anchor Brewery continued to operate until 1968.<\/p>\n
\nWhitbread’s closed the Company’s head office, brewery, and bottling plant on Trueman Street in 1982.
\nThe main brewery buildings were partly demolished and replaced with flats and the head office was converted into offices.
\nBrewing ceased at the Cook Street brewery in 1988 and it lay empty for over a decade.
\nIn 2000 work began to transform the brewery buildings into a modern business facility and it reopened as the Deva Centre in 2001.
\nIt is home to a diverse range of businesses.<\/p>\n
\nThrelfall’s owned two breweries, the Trueman Street brewery in Liverpool, Merseyside, and the Cook Street brewery in Salford, Greater Manchester.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10139,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[379],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-4419","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-england-1960s","8":"first","9":"outofstock","10":"shipping-taxable","11":"purchasable","12":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/brewerytrays.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/4419","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/brewerytrays.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/brewerytrays.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brewerytrays.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4419"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brewerytrays.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10139"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/brewerytrays.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4419"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brewerytrays.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=4419"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brewerytrays.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=4419"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brewerytrays.co.uk\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=4419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
