The site of the Robin Hood Brewery.

By 1930 and at least as late as 1947 there was a Robin Hood Brewery in Tottington. It was located in what is now a parking lot behind the still existing Robin Hood on Main Street. In view of its proximity to the pub, it would seem likely that the brewery was owned by the publican (or the owners of the pub).
The brewery is included, as 'Robin Hood Brewery', on the 25" O.S. map of the area published in 1930, based on a survey made in 1927-28. It figures on later maps, up to 1947, as 'Brewery' tout court.
