Summary
[edit]DescriptionWar Memorial - The Great War - geograph.org.uk - 1747310.jpg |
English: War Memorial - The Great War The Regent Brewery stood at the junction of Chapel Street (now the lower part of Durnford Street) and Union Street just before the Stonehouse Bridge ("Ha'-penny toll bridge"). The buildings were erected in 1889 and became part of the Plymouth Breweries group in 1891.
As a large employer in the area, it was inevitable that many of its men served in the Great War (WWI) and the loss of lives was recorded on a concrete tablet originally located on the wall of the 'Brewery Tap' Public House attached to the Regent Brewery. In 2002 the tablet was rescued and restored and is now set on the only remaining wall of the old Anchor Brewery building together with the lettering 'East Stonehouse' and the colourful Earls of Mount Edgcombe's coat-of-arms. At the time of the Great War, the Anchor Brewery building was part of the Plymouth Breweries Group which is the "Company" referred to in the memorial plaque. In memory of the following employees of this Company who during the Great War gave their lives in the service of their country: Sgt S Parsons 6th Dragoon Guards Sgt T Ferris Devon Regt Pte S Jones ditto Pte J Rowe ditto Pte E G Williams ditto Pte H Hawswell Royal Fusiliers Pte W Smith ditto Pte C Finch Worcs Regt Pte E Rodd D.
