There's a single document relating to James Hole in the London Metropolitan Archives. It's the valuation made for Courage Barclay Simonds in February 1968, presumably in preparation for their bid for the brewery.
It's revealing in several ways. First and foremost it shows how much of the brewery's capital was tied up in pubs. Pubs accounted for 86% of the valuation. Of course, it was the pubs that Courage were primarily after. 207 of them in all.
That's one of the reasons the whole merger thing started in the 1950's. Financial analysts noticed how poor the return on the capital was at most breweries. Because a tied estate amounted to a huge amount of capital compared to the size of the business. It's a strange model. When I was younger I wasn't aware that the enormous pub estates of brewers had a political origin.
Brewers had owned some pubs for a long while. In the 18th-century London Porter brewers like Whitbread and Barclay Perkins had already built up estates of pubs. But the majority of pubs remained outside the ownership of brewers. It was only at the end of the 19th century, when changes to the licensing regime made it virtually impossible to get a new licence and local authorities were actively trying to reduce the number of pubs, especially beerhouses.
This is how much the number of pubs fell:

I make that a fall of over 19% between 1895 and 1920. Very considerable. Especially when you consider than between 1891 and 1921 the population of England and Wales grew from 29,001,400 to 37,886,700 - an increase of 30%.
With a dwindling number of potential outlets breweries began to buy every pub that they could. The process was financed from the capital raised when breweries moved from being partnerships to limited companies. It lead to ridiculous prices being paid. In the 1890's, pubs in the East End of London were selling for £10,000, £20,000 or even £30,000. With a pint of beer cost just 2d (so you'd get 120 pints for £1) those are astronomical sums.

Holes Castle Brewery surprisingly remained open until 1982. Looking at it now, it seems unlikely that it should have hung around so long. John Smiths closed Warwicks & Richardsons, the other Newark brewery, virtually immediately after taking control. I wonder why Holes survived so long?
I'd love to know what the Castle Brewery's capacity was. When originally constructed in the 1890's, it brewed about 50,000 barrels a year. In the 1980's they were still using the same brewhouse and I don't believe that it had been extended. My guess would be that it was no more than 200,000 barrels at the very most.
Anyway, here's the full list of Holes pubs, along with their value. It's sad to think that the Robin Hood Hotel, one of their most valuable pubs, is currently abandoned and crumbling, and despite being listed, likely to be demolished.

I realise this has limited appeal to anyone unconnected with Newark. But that's the point of blogging. No-one is telling you what to write about.
Surprisingly the Two Palfreys still exists. Why surprising? Because it's an estate pub. Many of those have closed in the last two decades.

Holes Castle Brewery surprisingly remained open until 1982. Looking at it now, it seems unlikely that it should have hung around so long. John Smiths closed Warwicks & Richardsons, the other Newark brewery, virtually immediately after taking control. I wonder why Holes survived so long?
I'd love to know what the Castle Brewery's capacity was. When originally constructed in the 1890's, it brewed about 50,000 barrels a year. In the 1980's they were still using the same brewhouse and I don't believe that it had been extended. My guess would be that it was no more than 200,000 barrels at the very most.
Anyway, here's the full list of Holes pubs, along with their value. It's sad to think that the Robin Hood Hotel, one of their most valuable pubs, is currently abandoned and crumbling, and despite being listed, likely to be demolished.

I realise this has limited appeal to anyone unconnected with Newark. But that's the point of blogging. No-one is telling you what to write about.
Surprisingly the Two Palfreys still exists. Why surprising? Because it's an estate pub. Many of those have closed in the last two decades.
