Hi everyone

Have lived well over half my life in Sheffield, that period after education when you marry, have kids, bring them up and wave them off. If I could, I wouldn't change any of it for somewhere else.

A question - can anyone point me in the right direction or give me information on the history of Gin Making/alcohol distillation in Sheffield and surrounding towns. I am particularly interested in makers names or the location of buildings that were used as distilleries.

Many thanks

I will sort through the list and see where the leads take me.

The icing on the cake would be photographs of the inside and outside of a Sheffield distillery.

Many thanks!!

Many thanks for the lead much appreciated.

Feedback - W & A Gilbey Ltd are whisky distillers and their operation was at Strathmill Distillery, Keith, Scotland.

It's made me realise that in order for companies to sell their goods in the past some had to operate a large number of their own outlets through the large cities whilst others sold through spirit merchants, today however they would either sell through the large supermarkets or the off-licence chains, today's equivalent would be like seeing a Gin Shop on Ecclesall Road selling only Gordons.

Depends on the year you are interested in, in the 1850's e can only imagine gin being concocted in a shed in the back yard and "sold" by the bucketful to friends and neighbours, or swapped for tea or a turnip ... there is a piece about Gin on here somewhere - Link Fairie opening right here ...
