The first large scale brewery in Newark, founded by Samuel Sketchley in about 1766. Included maltings and ancillary buildings. In the 1840s, run by brothers John and William Handley.
In 1856, acquired by Richard Warwick, who later built a new brewery at Northgate (Warwicks & Richardsons Ltd). In 1871, Town Wharf was used for bottling and stabling, and brewing was discontinued.
Buildings survive, most converted to housing.
