  • Boddingtons Bitter Had Been Produced As Ttthis Was Written
    BODDINGTONS BREWERY DOUBLE GOLD FOR ROBBIES FESTIVAL GLORY FOR LOCAL 1778 - 2005 FAMILY BREWER STOCKPORT’S family brewer, Frederic Robinson Ltd, is basking in glory after Old Tom won two top awards at CAMRA’s National Winter Ales Festival, held at Man- RR.II.PP. chester’s New Century Hall last month. The legendary 8.5 per cent alcohol-by-volume strong ale, which has been brewed continu- ously since 1899, not only won the barley wine category but then went on to win the overall title of ‘Supreme Champion Winter Beer of Britain’ by a panel of tasters including beer writers, brewing industry professionals and officials from CAMRA, the Campaign for Real Ale. The competition was split into three categories, stout and porter, old ales and strong milds, and barley wines. The judging panel then had to narrow down the selection to just two beers from each category before selecting the supreme champion. At the announcement, Steve Prescott, Or- ganiser of the National Winter Ales Festival congratulated Robinson’s on their victory. He said, “Old Tom is no stranger to awards. It’s a fabulously rich beer and thoroughly deserves the top prize.” BODDIES SHUTS AT LAST HE LAST BREW of Boddingtons Bitter had been produced as TTthis was written. The historic Strangeways Brewery will now close despite a valiant, but ultimately doomed, campaign to save it by unions, local press, the City Council and CAMRA. Mike Benner, Chief Executive of CAMRA said, “Beer has been brewed at Strangeways since before the French Revolution and global owners InBev have lost their heads if they think the people of Manchester will treat Boddingtons brewed in Lancashire and Wales with the same fondness.

    EER B TRA BY M 2017 EDITION #beerbytram WELCOME TO BEER BY TRAM. Welcome to the 2017 edition of NET’s Beer By Tram guide, produced in partnership with the Campaign For Real Ale (CAMRA). Here in Nottingham we’re lucky enough to have been blessed with a large number of top quality real ale pubs throughout the city centre and surrounding suburbs. What’s even better is that many of these pubs are within easy reach of our tram stops. Using this pocket-sized guide should help you easily locate the nearest CAMRA approved pub, wherever you may be on our network. It might even encourage you travel to places you’ve not been before – there are some real hidden gems across the length of both our lines. Taking the tram means you can leave the car at home and treat yourself to a pint or two, comfortable in the knowledge you’ve have a safe and reliable way of getting back home. You can even share your journey of real ale discovery with us on social media. Tweet your pics or post them to Facebook using #beerbytram For more information about travelling with NET, including tram timetables and ticketing prices, please visit: www.thetram.net 2 3 LET’S ‘PINT’ YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION!.. The beer scene in the Nottingham conurbation is thriving in a way we have not seen before and is probably in better health than anywhere else in the country. This is demonstrated by the annual Robin Hood Beer and Cider Festival held in the grounds of Nottingham Castle and enjoyed by over 25,000 customers in just three and a half days, judged by many to be the best beer festival in the country.

    Happy Valley Strikes Gold Stockport Beer & Cider Festival Round-up – see pages 12 & 13 2 OPENING TIMES July 2011 SSM July 2011 OPENING TIMES 3 The Stockport & South Manchester CAMRA Pub of the Month for July is the Milson Rhodes on School Lane in Didsbury. Didsbury pub fan Stuart Ballantyne went to visit this relative newcomer to the village’s pub scene. HE Milson Rhodes is Wetherspoon’s first venture into Didsbury and it has introduced some much needed Tcompetition into the village. The pub is named after Dr. John Milson Rhodes (1847-1909) who has been described as ‘a friend to humanity’. Dr. Rhodes lived in Didsbury treating patients with learning difficulties and epilepsy. He was so highly regarded that on his death Didsbury’s four square clock tower on Wilmslow road was built to commemorate his life. Proud to be a CAMRA National The manager of the Milson Rhodes is Kirstin Downham, formerly the duty manager at the Ford Madox Brown in Pub of the Year 2008 finalist Rusholme. She told Opening Times that she drinks cask beers herself and uses her own experience and beer preferences to choose which beers to sell. She always tries to mix well known beers with those of her own choice and from smaller breweries up and down the country. “I am always willing to try new beers” she says. At the Milson Rhodes attention to detail is important. Kirstin has trained her own management team to ensure that quality is always high. She always supports local charities and regularly raises money for the nearby Christie hospital.

  • Brief Histories of Churches Cardiff
    Brief Histories of Churches in the Roath, Splott, Adamsdown, Cathays, Tremorfa, Tredegarville & Penylan areas of Cardiff Roath Local History Society in Cardiff has as its area of interest the old Parish of Roath in the 1880s. This covered not just the area we know as Roath today but also Splott, Adamsdown, Pengam, Pen-y-lan, and part of Cathays. This brief histories of churches looks at the churches that would have been in the area of old parish of Roath but also strays into neighbouring area such as Tredegarville and Cathays as a whole. There may be more churches to be included such as some mission halls that doubled up both as Sunday Schools as well as a church. A couple of synagogues are also included. Building of other faiths will be added over time, though some are already listed as former church buildings now house other faiths. Some errors and omissions in the details are likely. When the author is made aware of any errors, or additional information comes to light, the details on the website version will be updated where possible. The website also contains an interactive map that pinpoints the individual churches. Research for this compilation has relied heavily on a number of publications by members of Roath Local History Society in particular: ‘Cardiff Churches Through Time’ by Jean Rose. ‘Roath, Splott and Adamsdown, One Thousand Years of History’ by Jeff Childs. ‘Roath, Splott and Adamsdown – the Archive Photographs Series’ by Jeff Childs The author would also like to thank members of the various churches listed for their assistance and individuals of other organisations.

  • Financialisation, the Brewing Industry and the Changing Role of the Pub in Britain and Germany
    Financialisation, the brewing industry and the changing role of the pub in Britain and Germany Liam Francis Keenan Doctor of Philosophy School of Geography, Politics & Sociology Newcastle University July 2017 Abstract Financialisation has been understood in varying ways from different disciplinary perspectives. Developing a political economy approach concerned with the geographical and institutional variegation of national capitalisms, this thesis aims to provide a more finely grained, geographically sensitive understanding of financialisation which more thoroughly appreciates the constitutive roles of space and place. Taking the dramatic reductions in the number of pubs in Britain and Germany as the entry point, the empirical focus seeks to explain the roles of financialisation in the pubs business at both national and sub-national scales. The changing role and closures of pubs will be utilised to explain how the processes of financialisation are reorienting economic interests, transforming corporate forms, enrolling an increasing number and widening set of actors into the global financial system, and impacting the experience of an economically and socially significant sector of the economy. The international comparison serves to explain how while the processes of financialisation maintain certain general characteristics they are unfolding in geographically differentiated and uneven ways shaped by the institutional configurations of variegations of capitalism. Whilst exhibiting core constituents and common underlying tendencies, it will be argued that the spatially and temporally variegated phenomena of financialisation is enacted, mediated and resisted by geographically grounded actors and institutions. Keywords: Financialisation; Variegated Capitalism; Pubs; Brewing i Acknowledgements I would like to thank the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and the North East Doctoral Training Centre (NEDTC) for funding and essentially making this PhD thesis a reality.

  • City and County of Cardiff Dinas a Sir Caerdydd
    CITY AND COUNTY OF CARDIFF DINAS A SIR CAERDYDD COMMITTEE OF THE COUNCIL 25 April 2002 CABINET PROPOSAL AGENDA ITEM: Community Planning Background 1. On 21 September 2000 the Council approved the development of a partnership- based community strategy. This reflects the fact that community planning is a key component of the Government’s modernisation agenda and the Council continues to be at the vanguard of the development of community planning in Wales. The Council has taken into account the advice of the National Assembly and is continuing to learn from and help shape best practice by its participation in the Audit Commissions Quality of Life pilot project and the Local Government Information Unit’s Community Planning network. 2. In the last year the Council has continued to work with partners to develop indicators for the Community Strategy, launched Action Forums on Race Equality and the Anti Litter Strategy, undertaken a partnership audit, and tied the Community Strategy into the budgetary and policy development cycles of the Council. This report provides an update on progress in delivering community planning in Cardiff and outlines a work programme for 2002-2003. Issues Emerging from the Congress 3. At the second Capital Congress, which was entitled ‘Time for Delivery’, 100 community planning partners agreed changes to the draft strategy, which is attached to this report as Appendix A. In part, this reflected the results of an extensive survey undertaken in Capital Times that received 2,474 responses. A summary of the results is attached as Appendix B. Capital Congress also agreed the Performance Indicator framework and, at a series of workshops, began evaluating the potential for the delivery of objectives through partnership working.

Pete Brown is a regular and explains why it won. E OLDE WOOLPACK on Brinksway, is a pub we almost lost. Closed for more than 12 months, its fate seemed uncertain Yuntil Mick Flynn and his family came to the rescue in November 2010. Situated on the banks of the River Mersey, close to the town centre and the M60 motorway (the Co-Op pyramid is about 100 yards away) it is ideally situated for passing trade and regulars alike. It is particularly popular in summer months with walkers and cyclists. As you enter you are greeted by a U-shaped bar, with an open seating area to your left, and two small rooms to the right. There is the odd hand pump on the bar, 15 to be precise, five dispensing an ever changing range of quality beers, and 10 (yes I did say 10) given over to some of his range of up to 16 ciders and perries.
