- Title: Deeds of the Hoddesdon Brewery and a number of licensed houses owned or leased by the brewers
- Description: This collection consists of deeds incident to the conveyance of the whole of the Hoddesdon brewery and all its licensed houses in 1866 and title deeds of some of these houses and of others that were acquired later.
The expansion of Hoddesdon Brewery dates from its purchase by William Whittingstall from Rene Briand in 1781. From that date until his death in 1803, Whittingstall systematically enlarged the brewery's commercial outlets by buying up a number of public houses in the surreounding district. Messrs John Christie and George Cathrow bought the property from Whittingstall's executors and at the death of Cathrow in 1842 it was sold privately to a new partnership of Messrs Peter Christie, John Back and Robert Hunt. - Date: 1535 - 1911
