The Perth Brewery possibly dates back to the 1600s or even earlier. The Perth Brewing Company was established in 1786 by William Wright and Alexander Ritchie. Registered in 1925.
Acquired by Vaux Breweries Ltd in September 1961. Brewing ceased in mid-1964. Following the closure of the brewery, the site was acquired by Perth Town Council, who demolished the buildings to make way for a ring road which was eventually cancelled. Subsequently, houses and a medical centre were built on the site.
