THE BEGINNINGS OF WHITBREAD
The Chiswell Street brewery in 1792.
Samuel Whitbread [1720-1796] was born in Cardington, the seventh of eight children. At 14 he was sent to London to become apprentice to a brewer, John Witman and in 1742 went into partnership on his own account with a Thomas Shewell; they had two breweries but consolidated on a site in Chiswell Street in 1750. In 1752 Whitbread bought property in Potton [W2107]. In 1765 Whitbread bought Shewell out and by 1800 the brewery was the largest in London. Samuel Whitbread bought Southill Park, a 17th century house, He also bought land in Old Warden from 1773 [W2223-2413] and purchased Elstow Manor in 1792 [W2809-2810] and other land in Elstow between 1792 and 1796.
