Holt Brewery Co. Ltd, 76 Holt Street, Gosta Green, Birmingham, West Midlands
Fulfords were established as maltsters in 1819 and commenced brewing on the repeal of the malt tax in 1880.
The Holt Brewery Co. Ltd was registered in February 1887 and was reconstructed on 19th March 1896.
Acquired by Ansells Brewery Ltd in 1934 with 250 houses but was not closed until 1974.
The former brewery offices, on the corner of Holt Street and Woodcock Street, were built and dated 1906. Between 1997 and 1999, this became a pub with microbrewery: Faculty & Firkin. There is a Holt squirrel in terracotta on this building, and faded painted brewery signs on the south elevation. Currently still a non-brewing pub named 'Gosta Green'.
