Elgood's is a family regional brewery in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, UK. The North Brink Brewery was established in 1795 and was purchased six years later by William Watson and Abraham Usill. Both owners recognised the importance of acquiring public houses that would sell the produce of the brewery instead of brewing their own and eventually raised the number of tied houses to 40. In 1836 Phillips, Tibbitts and Phillips took over, but the partnership failed and the Phillips family continued alone until 1877. In 1878, it was purchased by the Elgood family.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Elgood & Sons Ltd )〕 ==History==
The brewery is located on the north west bank of the River Nene, west of Wisbech's town centre. After it was bought by the Elgood family, the building was renovated in the Georgian style and most of it is still in use today. It was one of the first classic Georgian breweries outside London.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wisbech-society.co.uk/elgoods.html )〕 Nigel and Anne Elgood's three daughters, Belinda Sutton, Jennifer Everall and Claire Simpson, are the fifth generation of the family to run the business. During the First World War the brewery was fire-bombed by a Zeppelin, and the shell of the bomb can still be viewed in the brewery museum. During the Second World War some of the metal vats and tuns were melted down, but the brewery retained its 17th-century Eagle Foundry (Wisbech) liquor vat. In the brewery gardens there is a landscaped mound (on top of which stands "Brewery House"). This mound is the outside the original cold store for the beer. During the First and Second World Wars the cellar doubled as an air-raid shelter. Today the cellar is unused, but the entrance is still visible from the current cold store. The gardens, which contain 200-year-old trees, a lake and a maze, are promoted by the Campaign to Protect Rural England.〔Members Guide 2012, published by CPRE, 2012〕
