The former brewery

Theakston's Black Bull Brewery, College Lane, Masham, North Yorkshire

Robert Theakston was a farmer from the hamlet of Warthermarske, near Masham. In 1827, he established a brewery at the Black Bull Inn, College Lane, Masham. Due to increased demand for his products, he built a new brewery along College Lane, to the rear of the Black Bull. These buildings survive, converted to houses.

The family bought orchard land at 'Paradise Fields' on the west side of the town centre, and Robert's sons, Thomas and Robert, relocated there in 1875. See: Theakston Ltd.
