In 1877 John Wall listed at the Stourbridge Brewery, which by 1896 was Haskew, Whitwell and Hands.

Registered in May 1896 to acquire and amalgamate: the Stourbridge Brewery; the Rowley Brewery, Blackheath; White Swan Brewery, Oldbury and the Round Oak Brewery, Brierley Hill with a total of 135 public houses. Brewing was concentrated at the Stourbridge Brewery.

Acquired by Wolverhampton & Dudley Breweries Ltd in 1909 although Whitwell & Hands were still listed in 1920, possibly malting?
