Daniel Thwaites & Co. Ltd, Myerscough Road, Mellor Brook, Lancashire, BB2 7LB
Acquired by Daniel Thwaites in 1807. Registered in March 1897. Until 2018 they brewed at the Star Brewery in the centre of Blackburn. A new brewhouse was built in 1966. The Star Brewery was known as the Eanam Brewery until ca.1948.
Some of the brewery's major brewing assets, including the Lancaster Bomber and Wainwrights brands, were sold to Marstons in 2015, but a 20-barrel plant was retained in Blackburn for smaller-run beers. In September 2018, they commenced brewing at Mellor Brook. There are plans for a heritage centre there. The Star Brewery was entirely demolished in 2019.
Still independent.
