More about this scene
Behind the disused mill was the Wharfedale Brewery, which supplied many of the town's 15 taverns. The brewery closed during the First World War, and was then used as billets for troops. Later it became Oxley's Mineral Water factory, and in 1943 even produced Coca Cola for American troops stationed nearby. The old brewery chimney smoked for the last time in 1937, and was taken down brick by brick by two skilled chimney jacks.
