Old building, may or may not still be there.

Anyone know the history or the name?

Then ...

Now ...

... not a patch on that old building.

Why do you ask @TobyC ... what's the story?

TobyC · Tuesday April 5, 2022

There really is no story, I saw it in a youtube video and couldn't find any way to google it. I've had the image on my computer for a while and just thought I'd ask you fellas.

The words on top, T O B Y (some image that I can't identify) * L E S, is that a brand name?

Ah! I missed it first time ...

TOBYC?LES

^ as you were typing.

T O B Y (some image that I can't identify) AL E S Would be my guess.

I think its Toby Ales the "C" might be a symbol. Charrington used that brand.

I concur with "TOBY ALES" and the bit in the middle is a logo, possibly a profile of the Toby Jug dude?

The website for the Talbot Mill has a section on their neighbours (this building being one) and puts that picture at 1973.

A-ha!

"Purchased by Charrington & Co in 1961 and continued to brew as part of United Lancastrian and then Bass Charrington until closure in 1973."

I think you're right about the Toby jug dude.
