Harmans Brewery: A memory of Uxbridge

Harmans Brewery

A Memory of Uxbridge.

My grandparents pub, The Gardeners Arms. In Park Road, was a Harmans pub.
There used to be an alley that ran down the centre of the Brewery.
I remember two directors of the brewery coming in my pub regularly . MR Green and Mr Hutton. Does anybody remember Park Motor Batteries owned by Mrs Smith and run by Brian Parkes. It was opposite The Gardeners Arms.

The alley you refer to was Brewers Yard and one of the 4 yards that ran off Uxbridge High St. The others were Bakers yard (between Suters and the Underground station). Laundry Yard ( now gone) and Bennetts Yard (at the bottom end of the High St). Harmanns dray horses are one of my favourite memorys as there was a Harmanns pub just opposite Whitehall School which i attended.

In response Tony, albeit late, I never knew what my old dad did but I think he was on the drays but I'm not really sure. I just knew he worked for the brewery. Before moving to Norfolk I worked for a small engineering company up the alley way to the left of MANETTAS, this company was called G. NASH LTD and it moved its business to Norfolk around 74/75. I recall a shoe shop next door to MANETTAS called BATA....their shoes were ok but not top quality!!
