Here’s an interesting discovery I came across recently on a long-defunct pub called the Wheatsheaf (https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=Winchester&hl=en&ll=51.050014,-1.322737&spn=0.004485,0.011362&sll=52.8382,-2.327815&sspn=8.830698,23.269043&oq=winchester&t=h&hnear=Winchester,+Hampshire,+United+Kingdom&z=17&layer=c&cbll=51.050093,-1.322704&panoid=JCk1jnn75Vc_41jt7OgFLQ&cbp=12,326.12,,0,-0.85) in the Winchester suburb of St Cross. Along the side is a panel saying ALE & STOUT DRAWN FROM THE WOOD. The fact that it appears to be tiled, and refers to stout, suggests that it very much predates the CAMRA era. Does anyone have any idea which brewing company may have originally been responsible for putting it up?
