Halesworth Brewery, 11 Market Place, Halesworth, Suffolk.
John Carbery Evans & Co; then George & Co; then Croft & Flick.
Founded 1770. 1868: Thompson George and Stanford. Flick married into the Stanford family which had been in partnership with Thompson George. Flick seems to have been a financier involved with several East Anglian breweries. Then Croft & Flick were brewers, maltsters, wine & spirit merchants and coal & lime merchants.
In 1886 they merged with Bridges, Cuthbert & Co Ltd's Falcon Brewery of Ipswich to form the Norfolk & Suffolk Brewery Co Ltd. That year they were building a new steam brewery at Eye. Colchester Brewing Co. Ltd had an option to purchase the 18-quarter brewery in 1888 with 61 freehold and 12 leasehold houses.
Brewing continued until 1925 when Ind Coope Ltd acquired the Colchester Brewing Co.
