Scope and Content Former offices, Ladywell Brewery, Fisherrow, Midlothian The Ladywell Brewery at Fisherrow was founded in about 1830 by John Young, and probably had a coastwise as well as a local trade. It became a limited company in 1891. This view shows the front office block after the demolition of the main part of the brewery, which lay to the rear, and to which access was given through the arched doorways at either end of this building. The firm was taken over by Whitbread in 1968 and closed. This was part of a process of rationalisation which had begun in the late 1950s, stimulated by improvements in road transport.
