The Division was formed as part of Kitchener's Fifth New Army and was mainly comprised of locally raised Pals Battalions. After initial training near home, they concentrated at Ripon in Yorkshire in mid 1915, In late August they moved to Salisbury Plain to begin final training. They proceeded to France in January 1916 and concentrated at La Crosse, east of St Omer. They were in action during the Battles of the Somme, including the capture of Scots and Sausage Redoubts, The Battles of Bazentin Ridge and Pozieres Ridge. 103rd Brigade and the Divisional Pioneers also saw action in The Battle of Flers-Courcelette. In 1917 they fought in the The First and Second Battles of the Scarpe and the The Battle of Arleux during the Arras Offensive. In August they were involved in the fighting at Hargicourt and in October they took part in The Third Battles of Ypres at the Broenbeek. In 1918 they were in action in The Battle of St Quentin and then moved to Flanders seeing action in The Battle of Estaires, The Battle of Bailleul and The First Battle for Kemmel Ridge during the Battles of the Lys, suffering heavy losses. The 34th Division was then withdrawn from fighting and on the 21st of April they moved to the area west of Poperinge for reorganisation and was engaged in digging a new defensive line between Abeele and Watou. On the 13th of May the infantry units moved to the area around Lumbres and reduced to a cadre which was then employed in the training of newly arrived American troops. By the 1st of July 1918 34th Division had been reconstituted and returned to action, at The Battles of the Soissonais, the Ourcq and the capture of Baigneux Ridge. They took part in the Final Advance in Flanders and at the Armistice was at rest in the area east of Courtrai. 34th Division was selected to join the Army of Occupation and began to move towards Germany on the 14th of November. On the 22nd of December a large number men with industrial and mining skills were demobilised. By the end of January 1919 the Division was occupying the Cologne bridgehead. Therefore Gordon Henry Shipstone was likely to be killed during day 1 of the battle of St. Quentin.3,4 | |

| (Subject) Newspaper* | 10 December 1928 | Harold Shipstone was the subject of a newspaper article on 10 December 1928. Suffocated? Baker found Dead with Head in Dough Mansfield Sensation Two others overcome by fumes A sensational discovery was made at a Mansfield bakery early this morning, an employee named William Smith, aged 46, a married man, of 18 Hibbert-street, Mansfield, being found dead, apparently from suffocation, with his head buried in a trough of dough. Within less than an hour, two other bakers, George Bradder, single of 116 Brownlow-road, Mansfield, and Harold Shipstone, married, of Heanor, and lodging at Peck's Hill, Mansfield, were overcome by fumes but survived after medical treatment. It appears that the bakery, which is situated in Broomhill-lane, formerly belonged to Mr. S. Binch, but on his death a short while ago the business passed into the hands of his son who lives on the premises. Mrs. Binch told the "Post" that the ovens were fired yesterday for the first time for a fortnight, and that Smith started to work shortly before midnight. At about 3.30 a.m. when Bradder went on duty to assist him, he found a strange smell of sulphur in the bakehouse, and Smith lying dead with his head in a trough of dough. At the time he appears to have had no reason to connect Smith's condition with the fumes that filled the bakehouse, for, along with Shipstone, he resumed the work that Smith has started. Within less than an hour, however, both men were overpowered by the fumes, and Shipstone collapsed unconscious on the floor. (picture of Mr. W. Smith) Fortunately Bradder was able to stagger to the open air, and secure the assistance of other men who carried Shipstone into Mr. Binch's house for treatment. Both men were afterwards examined by Dr. T. Tate. Sulphur-like Smell He came to the conclusion that they were suffering from some sort of asphyxia. During the morning, Bradder has revided sufficiently to be removed in one of the bakery vans to his house which was only a short distance away. The other man, however, remained in Mr. Binch's house for some time. As to the origin of the fumes, various theories are advanced. One is that they arose from the dough, and another that there was a leakage from the ovens, which are situated in the same building as the bakehouse. An employee of Mr. Binch, who had entered the bakery some time after the discovery, told the "Post" that the fumes had a distinct sulphur-like smell such as produced by a coke fire. During the morning Mr. B. Allman, the chief sanitory inspector to the Mansfield Corporation paid a visit to the bakery. It is understood that a post-mortem examination of the deceased is to be made, and an analysis of the dough in the trough to be carried-out. Deceased was formerly in Nottingham, but had lived in Mansfield for about 26 years. He was an experienced baker, and before going into Mtr. Binch's employ three years ago, had worked at other bakeries in the town. He had a family of six.14 |

James SHIPSTON
M, #747
| Research | 26 January 1755 | Research:Some conjecture (see Ancestry family trees) that this is the son of Thomas Shipston & Anne Barton bn 1755 in Basford and married to Sarah Shirley 1778 in Bulwell, and is the same James who marries Sarah Dunn in 1788 and has a family in Darley Dale. So in summary: Born Basford, 1755, marries Sarah Sharley in 1778. They have an Ann (1779) & George (1783) in Bulwell, then he hops to Darley Dale before 1786, marries Sarah Dunn in 1788, has 6 more children in Darley Dale (most of whom die off, as does his new wife Sarah) and he returns to die in 1826 in Bulwell (aged 72 - so fits with Basford baptism). Not impossible, and very convenient, but not evidenced. Would be neat if true. Constructed from information which is available (on internet) rather than all possible information. If this was the case, finding the burial of his first wife before 1788 would be useful... but I suspect this James (= Sarah Sharley) never strayed from Basford. Finding her burial in Basford/Bulwell after 1788 would be a clincher. I would bet they are buried together in Basford (never having left). Note that the James marrying in Darley Dale in 1788 was NOT noted to be a widow - but had to be if the was born and married in Basford - so is unlikely to be the Basford James. Finding the burial of this James Shipstone who married in Darley Dale would be the definitive clincher! |
| Research | 27 May 1760 | Research:A James Shipston = Elizabeth Drabble in Old Brampton, both of this parish. Too speculative to be James' father, but... James is removed from Barlow (Staveley?) to Brampton James SHIPSTON, Elizabeth wife Brampton 1761 (also Ann to Brampton in 1812).1 |

Nottingham How to Celebrate A Golden Wedding The President of the Conference visited the town on Monday for a very interesting occasion. Mr. and Mrs. J. Shipstone, who for forty-two years have been the leading members and supporters of the pretty little suburban church of New Basford, in the Halifax-place Circuit, celebrated their golden wedding, and determined to commemorate the event by clearing the debt from the chapel. In the afternoon, the President gave an interesting address. He said he had never been at a golden wedding before; he had often heard of such celebrations, and heard of them with profound interest. As Chapel Secretary, people generally sent for him when they were in trouble, when they were in a hole and wanted to be helped out of it. He had to weep with those who wept. But during the last few months, as President, he had seen Methodism under another aspect, and had to rejoice with those who rejoiced. His views on Methodism had risen marvelously during his presidency. He commended the thought of showing gratitude for a long life of mercies by freeing God's house from debt. A tea was provided gratuitously in the schoolroom, to which a large number sat down. After teas, on behalf of the trustees, leaders and members of the church, the President presented Mr. and Mrs. Shipstone with a beautifully illuminated address in a handsome frame, in which reference was made to his son, Rev. John Shipstone, who died in Ceylon, and to his late father-in-law, Rev. James Calvert Fowler, and also to the generosity and devotion to the cause of himself and wife for so many years. Congratulatory addresses were delivered by Revs. J.V.B. Shrewsbury, R. Middleton, F.J. Murrell and H.H. Whiting. The dept in the chapel stood at £375. The Chapel Committee promised £75. A bazaar at Christmas realised £85. A collection was made at the services, and promises made, reducing the amount required to £120; this amount Mr. Shipstone promised, and the Doxology was heartily sung. This is the second chapel in the Halifax-circuit which within a year has been freed from debt. Only last October, £1,000 was raised to free the circuit chapel. Mentioned John Shipstone and James Calvert Fowler.63 |

| (Mentioned) Newspaper | 1 June 1953 | James Shipstone was mentioned in a newspaper article on 1 June 1953. Over a Century of Good Brewing When James Shipstone first opened his brewery to service the people of Nottingham, he was not embarking on a novel service. Nottingham had for centuries enjoyed a reputation for brewing; its ancient rock-hewn caves had proved ideal for fermentation and storage and Nottingham ale was famous and popular. The peculiar mineral properties of the local waters had created and maintained a certain quality in brewing which was the envy of other towns. Into such an establishment craft came the young James Shipstone. He was a great man with great ideas, whose courage matched the adventurous streak in his nature. He planned along ambitious lines and was a pioneer in the application of science in the development of industry. "Pleasantly Reached" In a Nottingham handbook of 1852, it is recorded thus: "Basford, two miles and a half North of Nottingham, may be pleasantly reached either on foot or by railway". Here, James Shipstone founded his brewery. In 1880, his eldest son, another James, was taken into partnership and when another son, Thomas, came in four years later, the firm James Shipstone and sons was brought into being. On the death of the founder in 1897, the second James became chairman and continued in that capacity until his death in 1940, when James Henry and Ronald Arthur Shipstone became joint managing directors. Ronald died four years later, and James Henry carried on until his retirement brought into office his son, the fourth James Shipstone. The House of Shipstone is now in its second century of development, and the policy established by four generations which has proved eminently successful will be maintained. The high standard of their products is as well know as their familiar star trade mark, and their magnificent horses.80 |

He entered the Wesleyan ministry after a course at Didsbury College, Manchester, he entered into his life's calling. He successfully sustained his ministry in a number of English Methodist Circuits to which he was posted from time to time. ... Funeral held in his hime town of Totnes, prior to cremation at Plymouth.

New Wesleyan Chapel at Sherwood This morning's three- day bazaar, in aid of the new Wesleyan Chapel at Sherwood, Nottingham was opened in the Mechanics Hall, Nottingham by the Sherrif (Mr. J. Jelley). In building this chapel, the trustees have anticipated the requirements of the rapidly-increasing neighbourhood. It was, they felt, a serious step to take, but looking at Sherwood as a rising district, and one likely to become an important one, the trustees considered that the chapel should be in harmony with the surroundings ..

| (Subject) Newspaper | 9 September 1889 | James Shipstone was the subject of a newspaper article on 9 September 1889. Scene in a Nottingham Wesleyan Chapel A Public Protest Last night we received the following letter relating to a extraordinary occurrence at the Wesleyan Chapel, Sherwood, at the close of the evening service on Sunday:- Cavendish Hill, Sherwood, Nottingham, September 9th 1889 Sir - I was present at the Sherwood Methodist Wesleyan Chapel this evening when the service was conducted and the sermon preached by a Mr. R.J. Whiteley, F.I.C., of 13 Bowers-Avenue, Woodborough-road. Mr. Whiteley's subject was the sowing of good and bad seed, and during the sermon he thought it necessary to refer to the business carried-on by brewers, wine merchant's etc., and made what I considered a grossly unfair and disgraceful attack upon persons engaged in those trades, and I was glad that Mr. James Shipstone jun. who was present got up after the service and publicly complained of the insulting remarks which the preacher had made. If the matter had ended there, I should not have troubled you with this letter, but Mr. Whitely thought it necessary to refer to the erection of certain almshouses at Sherwood Mr. John Robinson, and said it was Mr. Robinson;s duty to erect such almshouses and he had no doubt only done so to atone for the mischief caused by his business. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson have been great friends, not only to the Wesleyan church and congregation at Sherwood, but especially to the poor of Sherwood, and as a member of the Wesleyan congregation, and a resident of Sherwood, I regret that such a scandalous attach should have been made upon Mr. Robinson from the Wesleyan pulpit, and I know this regret is shared by the greater part of the church nd congregation. Yours Truly, Wm. Clifton.A representative of this journal waited upon Mr. James Shipstone jun. at the brewery, New Basford today. In the course of an interview, Mr. Shipstone said that he had been a member of the congregation worshipping at the Wesleyan Chapel, Sherwood for a number of years and with his wife had taken an active part in the work of the church, which in included in the Broad-street Circuit. Mr. R.L. Whiteley F.I.C., is one of the staff of teachers at the University College and has upon several occasions occupied the pulpit at Sherwood by direction of Rev. J.B. Harrowell, superintendent minister. In the course of his sermon last evening Mr. Whiteley touched upon the temperance question, and said he could not understand how any sensible man could be a brewer, or how a man engage in any such business could rest comfortably at night. He would not like to stand in any brewers'ss.dak. shoes. He then referred to Mr. John Robinson, the Sheriff of Nottingham, an a man whose name was painted upon many public houses in Nottingham, and who, to atone somewhat for the mischief which was caused by his trade, had recently erected some almshouses in the vicinity of that place of worship. No man made so many paupers as a brewer did, and he prayed to the Lord to open the eyes of such men. After the Benediction has been pronounced, and when the service was practically over, but before Mr. Whitely had left the pulpit, Mr. James Shipstone, Jun. , rising in his pew, and addressing the preacher, said that as a member of the congregation he begged to protest most strongly against thew insulting remarks which Mr. Whiteley had used with regard to brewers and their business. Perhaps he was the only private brewer amongst the congregation, but there were many members of the congregation who were indirectly interested in brewing business, and he protested upon their behalf too. It was the abuse, and not the use in moderation of alcohol that caused the mischief, and so far as he was personally concerned he pinned his faith upon the first miracle of Christ, when he turned water into wine at the marriage feast at Cana in Galilee. Nothing he had ever read in the Bible had moved him from the position he had taken up, and which he could support upon other Biblical authority. When he found he could no longer rest his faith upon the words of Christ, and could believe that the trade in which he was engaged had been denounced by Christ, then we would "chuck" it, but not until. Mr. Shipstone's observations were followed by a running comment of "hear, hear" from th large congregation, which had remained behind to listen to this singular controversy in chapel. Mr. Whitely, in reply, said that he had made the matter a subject of prayer, and he prayed the Almighty that the fear of man might not deter him from doing what he felt was his duty. He was sorry if he had wounded Mr. Shipstone's feelings and given him pain, and if Mr. Shipstone cared to discuss the matter elsewhere he was quite prepared to go into it with him. This terminated the incident and the congregation separated. Mr. Shipstone said that he was indignant that such an attack was made upon those belonging to the brewing trade, and pointed out to our representative that Mr. John Robinson had liberally assisted the congregation at Sherwood, whilst some time ago a bazaar was held at his (Mr. Shipstone's) house and grounds in support of one of the congregation institutions was opened by Mrs. Robinson. Mr. Shipstone formally brought the matter under the notice of the superintendent minister.24 |
| (Subject) Newspaper | 14 September 1889 | He was the subject of a newspaper article on 14 September 1889. "An extraordinary scene was witnessed on Sunday (8 Sep 1889) at the Wesleyan Chapel, Sherwood, Nottingham. The preacher made an attack upon persons engaged in the liquor traffic, and, referring to the erection in the immediate vicinity of an almshouse chapel by Mr John Robinson, sheriff of Nottingham and a large local brewer, said that Mr Robinson ought to atone for the mischief caused by his business. Thereupon Mr. James Shipstone, another brewer, a member of the congregation, rose and publicly protested against the remarks of the preacher, amid considerable excitement." (I am not clear if this was James Shipstone snr. or jnr. Both may well have attended Sherwood Wesleyan Chapel - James jnr. living on Sherwood Rise).25 |

Licenced Victuallers' Association The fifty-second anniversary of the Nottingham and Notts Licensed Victuallers' Association was celebrated last night by a dinner in the large hall of the Mechanic's Institution, Nottingham, where there was a representative gathering. Mr. James Shipstone, jun. (of Messrs. J. Shipstone and Sons, New Basford) presided, the vice-chair being occupied by Mr. Charles Morris (Messrs. Morris and Place). The company numbered about 160, including several delegates from the kindred associations in distant towns. The Chairman was supported by Councillor C. Lovett, Messrs. W.A. Brown, E.W. Field (Nottingham Brewery Company), T. Sutherns (Ind Coupe and Company), J Severn and H.A. Dixon (Warwick and Richardson's), J. Farr (the Home Brewery Company), J. Butler, J.S. Headerly, G. Shipley, W.G. Cotsford (Dubois Freres and Cagnion), H. Cotton and A. Williams (solicitor to the association). Mr. S. Watson (secretary of the association) announced the receipt of letters regretting inability to be present from the Mayor of Nottingham (Councillor S.H. Sands), who was detained by an engagement in London, the Sheriff of Nottingham (Councillor Brownsworth), Viscount Newark M.P., Mr. H. Smith Wright M.P., Mr. Arnold Morley M.P., Mr. H. Broadhurst M.P., Ald. Sir John Turney etc . ... ... The Chairman, in proposing the toast of the evening "Success to the Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Licensed Victuallers Association", said that after the excitement and agitation of the last few months it was quite refreshing to meet on an occasion like that.After all the accusations and threatenings and slanders which had been levelled at their heads, it was quite refreshing to see them standing on their feet, and it seemed to him there had been a good deal of bark and yet, after all, very little bite. (Laughter and applause). But it would not do to overlook the fact that year by year the teetotallers were setting on foot fresh schemes and plots to vex and harass them in the carrying on of their trade. It would not be possible to point to any period of the trade's history when the interests and businesses of the licensed victualler and also that of the brewer had been so unscrupulously attacked, but he had faith to believe their interests had taken a deeper root, and their businesses a deeper foundation than their enemies imagined, and that they were, and would be, able to parry and to resist the thrusts and blows of a spiteful and malicious tyranny. (Applause). Licenced victuallers were told that their licence was only an annual one, and that they possessed no vested interest. History and established custom did not confirm this statement. No licence was ever issued on such an understanding, for no sane person could possibly be found to accept a licence on such extraordinary conditions. If such were the case, he thought the law would adopt, and those who administered the law, would be to make such a condition clearly and explicitly understood, whereas no such thing ever took place. (Applause.) It was the law of custom that if a person conducted his house satisfactorily his licence was always renewed. Such a proceeding the law has always sanctioned, and under this sanction the immense capital lying in the trace had been embarked. If a legitimate business, carried on in a legitimate manner, if the means they rightly employed to get their livelihood and support their families was not a vested interest, then he asked, what was? Not all the mysterious sophistry of the most practised juggler in his art could transmogrify it into anything else. ... The remaining toasts included "The Town and Trade of Nottingham", "The Licensed Victuallers Defence League of England and Wales", "The Honorable Members of the Association", "The Chairman" and "The Vice Chairman".26 |

| (Subject) Newspaper | 28 April 1893 | James Shipstone was the subject of a newspaper article on 28 April 1893. Letters to the Editor - The Brewer's Argument Sir, - it does not follow that the Liquor Traffic (Local Control) Bill is an "unjustifiable interference(?) with the liberty and comfort of the working man" because Mr. James Shipstone, jun., says it is. I have no doubt that he is quite competent to defend his trade, but I have some doubt as to his authority to speak and act for working men. It seems to me there was never a more working man's measure introduced to the House of Commons. What is the position of the working men in the House on this question? Surely they have a much better right to speak on behalf of working men than Mr. Shipstone. I believe in fact that to a man they are in favour of the Bill. Mr. Shipstone is alarmed because comparatively few persons will be able to vote on the question of the Bill become law in its present shape. Very well then, let some friend of the trade when the Bill gets into Committee moving an amendment giving all adults - males and females - the power to vote. I feel sure there will be no opposition from the temperance men in the House - no, not even if they include children. Does Mr. Shipstone, jun., and do others in the trade know, for what purpose their trade was first instituted? It will perhaps be interesting to him (as I am sure it will be to those working men whose interests are giving him so much concern just now) to know. The present legalised trade in alcoholic drinks had its origin in an institution in one of the most base and dishonorable tricks that ever stained the annals of a great nation. I quote from the preface to a work just issued from the Press by Blackie and Son the following facts. "The Domestic MSS. of Elizabeth's Reign vol 1., A.D. 1558, which can be seen in the National Record office, reveals the terrible story. A nobleman (how frightful the perversion), writing to Cecil, Secretary of State, complains of th independence of the common people, peasants, farmers and artisans thus - "The wealth of the meaner sort is the very summit of rebellion, the occasion of their insolence, of the contempt of the nobility. It must be cured by providing, as it were, of some sewers or channels to draw or suck their money by subtle and indirect means, to be handled insensibly. The nobility and squirearchy got the power to licence their servants to sell ale and wine throughout the country; the licences were lavishly dispensed, yielding an income to the licensers, and so the proprietors became corrupted in their morals and paralysed in their industry. Freude tells the frightful story, and Commissioner Tyldsley reports to Cecil (Vol 1. page 462) "that the alehouses - the very stock and stay of false thieves and vagabonds - were supported by the gentlemen for the worst of motives. I have spoken to sharpen you against the Devil, and all his wicked instruments." (September 3, 1561). Such is the origin of the liquor traffic, and on the strength of such facts, I fearlessly assert that it was conceived in ignoble and infamous selfishness, and bound upon the necks of the toiling masses - in whose name Mr. James Shipstone, jun., assumes to speak - with a purpose so bad, irredeemably wicked and diabolical, as to baffle the dictionary in supplying words to characterise it. The whole scheme is itself the best demonstration that the noble scoundrels who devised it were indeed, the wicked instruments of the Devil, as Commissioner Tyldsley says in writing to Cecil. In spite of those facts, Mr. James Shipstone, jun., and others of the trade - because of their "Goddess" is in danger - say that the Liquor Traffic (Local Control) Bill is "dishonest," "confiscatory", "robbery" &c., and prate that it will rob the poor man of his beer. Why, if the measure become the law of the land, and it is put in force, whose votes, I should like to know if not the working man's, will be the means of so putting the law into force. What has Mr. James Shipstone, jun.'s traffic done for labour? For every £5 spent on woollen cloth the workman gets at least £3. On made-up clothes he gets at least £3 11s., and so on in the case of almost every other article of everyday use - but drink. For every £5 spent in drink, 2s. 6d. only goes into the labour market. I am, sir, your obedient servant, Daniel Long 21, Tennyson Street, April 26 1893.28 |

Mapperley Ward Mr. James Shipstone adopted as Conservative candidate The first meeting in connection with the forthcoming municipal elections in Nottingham was held last evening, when, under the auspices of the Mapperley Ward Conservative Association, a gathering took place at the St. Ann's Church Schools for the purpose of adopting a candidate for the ward. Mr. G. Wigley, J.P., who presided, said that it behoved them straightway to put themselves in a fighting attitude to retain the seat for Mr. James Shipstone. That gentleman had served on the Council for three years, and he thought he was right in saying that the members of the Council on the opposite side would bear testimony to the good work he had done in that Council. Further, he said, it was possible that there would be a contest, and therefore they wanted to assure Mr. Shipstone that his seat was perfectly safe. Mr. James Shipstone, in the course of his preliminary remarks, deprecated the idea that politics should enter into municipal elections. He then referred to the gas undertaking of the Corporation. Instead of the gas being manufactured in three widely separated establishments, he advocated that is should be made at one centre under one efficient staff. That, he believed, would enable the Corporation to supply gas at a much cheaper rate. During the last three years, he added, the gas undertaking has contributed towards the relief of the rates no less a sum than £96,000. In conclusion, Mr. Shipstone said that some gentlemen had tried to injure him by insinuating that he had become a member of the Gas Committee solely for his own private benefit, and in refuting "that dastardly statement" we wanted to "throw it back in the teeth of the slanderer". A resolution was passed adopting Mr. Shipstone as a candidate for election in the ward.59 |

Mapperley Ward Alderman Elborne "Surprised at Liberal Competition" A meeting was held last evening at the Haydn Road Schools, Sherwood, in support of the Conservative candidate of Mr. James Shipstone for Mapperley Ward. Ald. E. N. Elborne presided. The Chairman said he was surprised when he heard that Mr. Shipstone was going to be opposed. They did not complain of the opposition. There were several wards in which the Liberals were not being opposed, so that they (the Liberals) could not say that the Conservatives' policy was one of retaliation. Mr. James Shipstone said the Radicals had challenged his position from, he ventured to think, a spirit of pure political hostility. He referred to what he characterised as the "extremely unfair" statements of Mr. Hamilton, who presided at the adoption meeting of his opponent. He took exception also to the words of Mr. Hamilton - "That persons who were intimately concerned in the drink trade ought to be restrained from becoming members of municipalities or having a say in the administration of municipal affairs." He however, regarded his business as being quite as honorable as that of Mr. Hamilton, whatever that might be. All he (Mr. Shipstone) asked was for fair play. He did not have the honour of Mr. Hamilton's acquaintance, but concluded from what he had said that he was a man of narrow and unfair views. So long as his trade was burdened in the way it was he resented such insinuations on the part of Mr. Hamilton, whether they were made as the result of ignorance or political prejudice. Mr. Shipstone Objects Further, Mr. Shipstone objected to the statements of Mr. Marlow, who said at his adoption meeting: "That he never entered a public house during an election, and there has never been so much as a glass of beer given away on his behalf at an election". He did not know whether in aking use of those words, Mr. Hamilton intended to eulogise his conduct by refraining from entering a public-house, or to infer that such places were unfit to enter. If any contest in which he (Mr. Shipstone) was engaged depended upon a glass of beer he would instantly refuse to be elected. Dr. Milner, who supported a resolution in favour of Mr. Shipstone's candidature, said the "Nottingham Daily Express" seemed to be for ever writing on anything he had to say. That paper reported him as follows - "A Dishonorable statement" was Dr. Milner's description of an assertion he attributed to Mr. A. Richardson that the Tory Party, though they were assured more schools were needed, refrained from building them in case the rates should go up". Question of New Schools (further description and complaint that Mr. Richardson's words were not only untrue but dishonest and libelous).60 |

Municipal Election Results Lessons of the Fight as heard at Liberal Club Good Auguries (after declarations in their respective wards, the candidates joined the successful Liberals at the Gladstone Club) Mr. T.A. Lewis, who has reduced Mr. Shipstone's majority by 169, was not at all dissatisfied with the result in the Mapperley Ward. He thought it augered well for the success of the Liberals when the next Parliamentary election was fought. At the Conservative Club Councillor James Shipstone was not satisfied with the result of his election, for he believed that some of his supporters had been frightened by the inclemency of the weather, and had not taken the trouble to vote. Mr. Shipstone also joined in the chorus about the nature of the opposition.61 |

| (Mentioned) Newspaper | 1 June 1953 | He was mentioned in a newspaper article on 1 June 1953. Over a Century of Good Brewing When James Shipstone first opened his brewery to service the people of Nottingham, he was not embarking on a novel service. Nottingham had for centuries enjoyed a reputation for brewing; its ancient rock-hewn caves had proved ideal for fermentation and storage and Nottingham ale was famous and popular. The peculiar mineral properties of the local waters had created and maintained a certain quality in brewing which was the envy of other towns. Into such an establishment craft came the young James Shipstone. He was a great man with great ideas, whose courage matched the adventurous streak in his nature. He planned along ambitious lines and was a pioneer in the application of science in the development of industry. "Pleasantly Reached" In a Nottingham handbook of 1852, it is recorded thus: "Basford, two miles and a half North of Nottingham, may be pleasantly reached either on foot or by railway". Here, James Shipstone founded his brewery. In 1880, his eldest son, another James, was taken into partnership and when another son, Thomas, came in four years later, the firm James Shipstone and sons was brought into being. On the death of the founder in 1897, the second James became chairman and continued in that capacity until his death in 1940, when James Henry and Ronald Arthur Shipstone became joint managing directors. Ronald died four years later, and James Henry carried on until his retirement brought into office his son, the fourth James Shipstone. The House of Shipstone is now in its second century of development, and the policy established by four generations which has proved eminently successful will be maintained. The high standard of their products is as well know as their familiar star trade mark, and their magnificent horses.94 |

| Anecdote* | 1969 | The author (Annie Eliza Snell nee Shipstone) refers "Uncle Jim rather frightened me when he called at the Manor House. He had grown a very long beard, almost to his knees, and I remember noticing the small bits of egg, caught up in the middle, remnants from his breakfast, I presumed! I became very friendly with his wife, Auntie Louie. Their children, according to my somewhat frail memory of them were called Harry, Edith, Gordon, Chris, and Ron."96 |

| (Subject) Newspaper* | 7 April 1939 | James Shipstone and Charlotte Draper were the subject of a newspaper article on 7 April 1939. A "Good News" Story Golden Wedding Celebration Milestone in the life of Mr. and Mrs. James Shipstone Long Eaton Lay Preacher's Record of Service A young clerk employed by a firm of wines and spirit merchants at Eastwood used to make regular visits to the rectory on business, and it was there that he met a young nurse. Their acquaintance developed, and for four years he courted this young Rectory nurse until one memorable day in 1889 - April 2, to be exact - the wedding bells rang (picture labelled "Mr & Mrs James Shipstone") out and they were married by the Rector, the late Rev. H. W. Plumtree, in the Eastwood Parish Church. And so we come over the years and congratulate Mr. and Mrs. James Shipstone, of The Nest, Recreation-street, Long Eaton, who celebrated their golden wedding on Sunday, and now at 73 and 71 years of age respectively, are looking forward to the time when their diamond wedding day will dawn. Mr. Shipstone, who is a cousin of Sir Thomas Shipstone, of Midland Brewery fame (#), can be described as one of the best-known Nonconformists in this district. He is - as an example of this - a very familiar figure at local funerals, for during his many years' association with Long Eaton he has conducted well over 500 burials in his capacity as a lay preacher. Born at New Basford A native of New Basford, Nottingham, he was taken to Eastwood as a child, and was "schooled" at the local National School, later becoming a time-keeper with a Nottingham hosiery manufacturing firm. As a young man he went back to Eastwood, and was employed in the wines and spirits business for nine years, but throughout his life has always been a strong supporter of temperance, his principles in this direction leading to his association with local Bands of Hope in days gone by. Mr. and Mrs. Shipstone came to Long Eaton nearly 47 years ago, when he was appointed as the local agent for the Singer Sewing Machine Co., Ltd. Some years later he moved into the Stapleford and Sandiacre district to become Assistant District Superintendent of the company, and during the latter part of the war, he was in charge of the Ilkeston and Long eaton district. In 1919 Mr. Shipstone was transferred back to this town and served as manager-salesman until his retirement in 1930, after being in the company's service for 38 years. A Local Preacher That's his business history, but perhaps ist is in connection with local Methodism that Long Eaton knows his best. As soon as he arrived in this district, he became associated with the Bourne Methodist Church, of which he has been a prominent member for nearly half a century. He was on the Chapel Trust Committee, assistant superintendent of the Sunday School years ago, class leader for 33 years and a most esteemed local preacher for 45 years in the Long Eaton Bourne Primitive Methodist Circuit. It was only natural that while at Sandiacre he should attend the old Primitive Methodist Church, which has given way before the march of modern progress and is now a firm's premises. He was only at Sandiacre for seven years, yet in that time held similar offices to those he has filled at Bourne. That his services in the local religious world are appreciated was fully realised by his election to the presidency of the Long Eaton Free Church Council, a position he held for the customary period of one year. Mrs. Shipstone may not have been in the public eye so much, but one must remember that she has been the person who has made much of Mr. Shipstone's work possible. They have had ten children, five of whom are living. The great milestone in their married life was recorded by a little family celebration at the home on Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Shipstone, both of whom enjoy good health, have received many telegrams of congratulation and good wishes, including messages from the members of the Bourne Church and Professor P. Ford (Professor of Economics for Southampton University) and family, who are old friends of the Shipstone family. Townspeople, generally, will join with us in extending our felicitations to this veteran and highly respected Long Eaton couple, with a hope that they will continue to enjoy the best of health and fortune. # Midland Brewery Fame?

He had been ill since December 1947 at which time he was obliged to give up taking an active part in church work. Well known in Long Eaton and district as a lay-preacher, Mr. Shipstone had been engaged in this voluntary work for 56 years. Immediately he came into the town in 1892 he joined the Bourne Primitive Methodist Church and served on the Chapel Trust Committee, was assistant Sunday School superintendent and a class leader for 32 years. He was a member of this church for 56 years. (photo in article "Mr. J. Shipstone") Mr. Shipstone had the record of having officiated at more than 1,000 funerals, in addition to weddings and baptisms. Married in 1890 Although a native of New Basford, Mr. Shipstone was taken to Eastwood as a child and there received his schooling at the local National Schools. As a young man, he went back to his birthplace and found employment in the wine and spirit business, although throughout his life he was a strong supporter of temperance. While engaged in this trade, Mr. Shipstone married in 1889, and three years later he came with his wife to Long Eaton as an agent for Singer Sewing Machines. He had a small shop in High-street Long Eaton, but a few years later moved to the Stapleford and Sandiacre district to become district superintendent of the company. During the latter part of the 1914-18 war he was in charge of the Ilkeston and Long Eaton Division.

Although he was then 65, Mr. Shipstone continued working until he reached his eightieth year as an agent of the Progressive Trading Company. One of a Methodist family, Mr. Shipstone was greatly influenced concerning religion by the late Rev. J. Flanagan, a Methodist evangelist whose sermon at Eastwood was listened to by Mr. Shipstone as a youth of 18. From that date he preached and addressed meetings continually. Having preached at all the Free Churches in the district and being generally recognised as one of the leading Nonconformists in the district, Mr. Shipstone was elected to the presidency of the Long Eaton Free Church Council, holding the position for the customary period of one year. Whilst living at Sandiacre he attended the Old Primitive Methodist Church, and although there for only seven years he filled most of the offices he had also held at Bourne. "Friendly Old Man" Many tributes have been paid to the friendly old man including the following: - "Mr. Shipstone was a highly respected and much loved man ion Long Eaton. He had the great gift of friendship, and his cheery smile and kindly greeting as he passed about the streets will long be remembered by all who came into contact with him. He always had a special interest in children. His interests in public life did not stop at the boundaries of long Eaton: they embraced national and international problems, and he was especially concerned with the achievement of world peace on a Christian basis". The funeral took place on Wednesday at Long Eaton Cemetery, preceded by a service at Bourne Church conducted by the Rev. J. Graham, of Ilkeston, assisted by the Rev. J.A. Tingle and the Rev. C.T.

| (Child) Birth* | between 1 October 1848 and 24 November 1848 | James Shipstone, son of John Shipston and Hannah Fletcher, was born between 1 October 1848 and 24 November 1848 at Bulwell, NTT.1,2 |
| (Registered) BC-Reg* | between 1 October 1848 and 31 December 1848 | His birth was registered between 1 October 1848 and 31 December 1848 at R.D. Basford Ref: XV, 426 Shipstone, James mother: Fletcher.3,4 |
| (Child) Baptism | 24 November 1848 | James Shipstone was baptised on 24 November 1848 at Bulwell, NTT, James son of John & Ann Shipstone - presume Ann to be a mistake for Hannah (there is no John & Ann family in the area at the time).1 |
| He was the son of John Shipston and Hannah Fletcher. | ||
| (Death from Burial) Death* | between 25 November 1848 and 10 March 1849 | From the burial record, James Shipstone died between 25 November 1848 and 10 March 1849 Stated as "CHILD" for male Birth entry in IGI, so may have died as an infant (assuming they associated the burial with the right James). Parents stated as John Shipstone and Hannah Fletcher. Infant means probably under 5 years.5,6 |
| (Child) Birth-Alt | December 1848 | James Shipstone, son of John Shipston and Hannah Fletcher, was also reported to have been born in December 1848 at Bulwell, NTT, From IGI male Birth entry. States parents to be John Shipstone and Hannah Fletcher.5,3 |
| (Deceased) DC-Reg* | between 1 January 1849 and 31 March 1849 | His death was registered between 1 January 1849 and 31 March 1849 at R.D. Basford Ref: 15, 333 Shipston, James age 0. Previous GRO index has this child dying age 5. Presumably 5 weeks, not years, hence revision to "0".7,8 |
| Research* | 11 March 1849 | Research: at Bulwell, NTT,There is a burial of James Shipston, infant 11 Mar 1849 - why do I think this is ours? There are James' born in 1841, 1846, 1848. 1841 survives as son of James in 1851 census - 1846 survives (as James Shipstone jnr). so I suppose this burial being James of John and Hannah is a reasonable assumption! GRO index shows age of this death to be "5" now corrected to zero (the 5 may have been weeks), so I am happy this is ours.1,9,8 |
| (Interred) Burial* | 11 March 1849 | James Shipstone was buried on 11 March 1849 at Bulwell, NTT, As James Shipston, Bulwell, infant. Is this the James age 0? Yes. Almost certainly.9 |

| Note | 25 March 1925 | Article on website regarding the Story of Mapperley Park Tennis Club, by Chris Weir. "The Hall itself, along with some of its grounds, was taken over by Nottingham Corporation as a hostel for University College. However a plot of land lying at the corner of Carisbrooke Drive and Mapperley Hall Drive remained undeveloped, possibly because it was badly drained and prone to flooding. Then by an indenture of the 14th September 1904 this plot was conveyed from William B. Starr to John Dane Player, the tobacco manufacturer, for the sum of £12,000. Apparently this corner plot included a pond, probably once part of the Hall's grounds, and as this may have presented difficulties for developers, the site continued to remain unused for some years." "In a conveyance of the 25th March 1925, kept in the club's archives, a 2,595 square yard portion of the original corner plot was sold by Player to James H. Shipstone, who at the time was living on Arlington Drive, for the sum of £1,250."40 |

"A covenant in the lease stated that the land was only to be used as 'a lawn tennis or other similar private club sports ground'. In addition it stated that the lessees were not to allow 'any persons other than the members of Mapperley Park Tennis Club or servants of the said Club, or the guests of the said Club, to use the demised premises'. They also had to agree to keep the land in good condition and at the end of each season 'to replace with good sound turf such of the turf as shall or may be worn'."40 |

Shipstone's Gift Yesterday was a day of thanksgiving at St. Augustine Church, New Basford, Nottingham. Since last year, more than £700 has been raised for the renovation and decoration of the church, and a new West window has been given by Mr. and Mrs. J.H. Shipstone. The new window, which is of six lights and foils, and is designed to illustrate the landing and reception of St. Augustine at Ebbsfleet, in the Isle of Thanet, A.D. 597, was dedicated by the Bishop of Southwell (Dr. H. Mosley) at the morning service, and in the evening, the Rev. J.W. Conybeare (Provost of Southwell Cathedral) preached at a special thanksgiving service. The donors of the windows were among the large congregation present at the dedication service, and the Rev. T.W. Peak (former vicar) and Rev. B.S. Ainley (vicar) took part in the service. Public Worship a Duty The Bishop in his sermon said the people of St. Augustine's had a church of which they might well be proud, and by the dedication of a new west window they had added enormously to its beauty and dignity. Beautiful surroundings in churches were fitting most of all because of what was due to God, and because they should help us to see God better, to realise more fully His beauty, His truth and goodness. Speaking of the main purpose of public worship - to honour and glorify God - the Bishop said there was a danger in the re-action of the old idea of Sunday of the puritanical view, that we should forget the main purpose of Sunday to worship God. However much we might value healthy recreation and open-air advantages that were so much appreciated today. We should fail sadly if, first of all, we did not recognise our duty of honouring and worshipping God. Worship should be the expression, not only of our attitude towards God, but our attitude towards life.53 |

| Note | 1949 | Article on website regarding the Story of Mapperley Park Tennis Club, by Chris Weir. Part 3 "1949 was a year of mixed fortunes for the club. " "However, the light problem paled into insignificance when Mr. Shipstone (of Shipstone's Brewery in Basford), who owned the club's land, decided that he needed to sell the land. The sum involved was £1,500, a hefty amount in those days. The club was immediately thrown into crisis. A special meeting was held on the 30th November at the Nottingham Mechanics Institute, with all kinds of ideas raised to save the club's future. Following the meeting a circular letter went out to members, but only £45 was raised, and further efforts still only secured another 135." "Then Mr. S.J. Browne, the club's president, came to the rescue. In 1950 Mr. Browne negotiated a more realistic sum of £1,250 for the land, along with a mortgage raised through the club's deeds. He himself offered the club an interest free loan of £250. Mr. Browne had saved the day. It seems, from the minutes, that Mr. Shipstone had been reluctant to plunge the club into such a difficult position Indeed the minutes record that: 'Before we consider the future, I should like to record our gratitude to Mr. Shipstone for the generous way he has dealt with us over the last 10 years.40' " |

| Anecdote* | 1953 | "As the company approached its century, James Henry Shipstone retired as Managing Director (of James Shipstone & Sons Ltd.), being succeeded in that office by his son, the fourth James Shipstone."56 |
| (Mentioned) Newspaper | 1 June 1953 | He was mentioned in a newspaper article on 1 June 1953. Over a Century of Good Brewing When James Shipstone first opened his brewery to service the people of Nottingham, he was not embarking on a novel service. Nottingham had for centuries enjoyed a reputation for brewing; its ancient rock-hewn caves had proved ideal for fermentation and storage and Nottingham ale was famous and popular. The peculiar mineral properties of the local waters had created and maintained a certain quality in brewing which was the envy of other towns. Into such an establishment craft came the young James Shipstone. He was a great man with great ideas, whose courage matched the adventurous streak in his nature. He planned along ambitious lines and was a pioneer in the application of science in the development of industry. "Pleasantly Reached" In a Nottingham handbook of 1852, it is recorded thus: "Basford, two miles and a half North of Nottingham, may be pleasantly reached either on foot or by railway". Here, James Shipstone founded his brewery. In 1880, his eldest son, another James, was taken into partnership and when another son, Thomas, came in four years later, the firm James Shipstone and sons was brought into being. On the death of the founder in 1897, the second James became chairman and continued in that capacity until his death in 1940, when James Henry and Ronald Arthur Shipstone became joint managing directors. Ronald died four years later, and James Henry carried on until his retirement brought into office his son, the fourth James Shipstone. The House of Shipstone is now in its second century of development, and the policy established by four generations which has proved eminently successful will be maintained. The high standard of their products is as well know as their familiar star trade mark, and their magnificent horses.70 |

Editors letter bag - A Nottingham Film I notice in "The Lighter Side" of Monday's issue a paragraph headed "Local News From America" on the subject of a film called "The Warning", which is alleged to show scenes taken during a "terrific bombardment" of Nottingham". May I point out that this film was made in May 1938, a considerable amount of it being "shot" at a demonstration being given by what was then the Auxiliary Fire Service in the Leen Side district. The warning referred to was of course intended to be what this country might expect in the way of raids, and did not, I believe, have any reference to the alas all too well known air raid warning as we now know it. As I was fortunate enough to take part in the demonstration which I mention, I feel I would like to bring the real facts of the matter to notice, especially as it serves to provide an opportunity of mentioning that Nottingham originated the Auxiliary Fire Service, which has since of course been merged into the National Fire Service. Considering that the film referred to was made sixteen months before war started, I feel it constitutes a great tribute to the long-sightedness of the city as a whole, and of Captain Popkiss in particular.

Licensing Bill Thin End of Wedge "It seems to me that we have far greater tasks and far more serious problems facing our country than to fool around with pubs," said Mr. Dennis Kendal, M.P. for Grantham, speaking at the dinner of the Lincoln and District Licensed Victuallers' Association at Lincoln last night. He was responding to the toast "The Houses of Parliament", and in referring to the proposed Licensing Bill he remarked "I object very strongly to any Government going into the pub business. "I think that the brewers can and do cater to the public quite adequately, but I think, all in all, we must keep throughout our lives in this country means or private enterprise working and operating, one in competition with the other, on a fair basis" he said. Monopoly nonsense Mr. James L. Shipstone, Nottingham brewer, who proposed the toast "Lincoln and District L.V.A." said that is was nonsense to talk about monopoly of the breweries. He asked: "What can be more competitive than our trade?" He went on : "We are told that this Licensing bill is not the thin end of the wedge for nationalisation. I do not impute any insincerity to the Government when they say it is not, but I say they are wrong. "It may not be their intention that this licensing measure should spread, but it will do so inevitably as soon as the seed is sown." He could not believe nationalisation was going to be any improvement. He concluded: "you are going to get a drink in something that is a cross between a Post Office, a railway refreshment room and a public lavatory".31 |

Nottingham Woman Charged under 1360 Act. Between 30 and 40 letters and postcards alleging corruption were stated to have been sent to a High Court judge, a Justice of the Peace for Nottingham, and members of a well-known city family, by a Nottingham housewife, at Nottingham guildhall today. Mrs. Betty Mildred King, 40, of 29 Bowers Avenue, was summoned for being a disturber of the peace , and being the writer of abusive and defamatory statements scandalising the Honourable Sir Wilfred Hubert Poyer Lewis, of the the H.M. Justices, and Mrs. Arthur Blount Lewis, J.P., of Nottingham. She pleaded guilty and was bound over to be of good behaviour and to keep the peace for five years in the sum of £25, with two sureties of £25. In default of the recognisances, Mrs. King was told she would be sent to prison for three months. Mr. R.O.F. Hickman, prosecuting, said King was being prosecuted under an Act of 1360. Involved in Court Actions. Defendant had been involved in two court actions during the past seven years, both of which she lost. The first was in 1941 at Nottingham, when her application for a maintenance order against her husband from whom she was separated. Mrs. Lewis was one of the magistrates on that occasion. Claim for Damages. The second was in 1943, when her claim for damages was dismissed in the High Court by Mr. Justice Lewis. Since February of this, Mrs. King was written between 30 and 40 abusive letters and postcards to Sir Wilfred Lewis, Mrs. Arthur Blount Lewis and Mr. and Mrs. J.L. Shipstone who, said Hickman "were a very well known Nottingham family". There was no relationship between Sir Hubert and Mrs. Lewis, but defendant was distantly related by marriage to the Shipstones and had been making defamatory statements about Mrs. Shipstone's Uncle. Not concerned in Case In her libel action at the High Court, defendant subpoenaed Mrs. Shipstone, although she was not concerned in the case in any way. Letters she had written to Mrs. Lewis and to Mrs. Shipstone accused them of corruption. "Since sending of the summons" said Mr. Hickman, "King had written to Mrs. Shipstone saying 'things' would be disclosed if steps were not taken to stop the prosecution." "The letters had been written with such frequency as to cause anxiety and distress to the parties concerned", he said. Mr. F.B. Pearce, for Mrs. King, said defendant had conducted her own case throughout the High Court action "which was extremely difficult". Written in same vein. It was because of the treatment she thought she had received, at that time, that she wrote the letters. The letters were written in more or less the same vein and did not vary much in their accusations and complaints, he said. Mrs. King had now obtained a maintenance order and was living with her mother. She realized her mistake and was very sorry for what she had done.33 |

(not clear how she was related to either party - Betty Mildred King distantly related to Mrs. Shipstone - Mary Ward nee Horsley - and defamed her uncle). There was certainly a quick " parting of the ways" as James Leslie Shipstone re-married in just over a year from the court case, and Mary 5 years later. |

When seen by an enquiry agent, both he and the woman made statements admitting they were living together. A decree nisi was granted petitioner, with costs and custody of the two children.11 |

Golden Key Unlocked the Welcome Inn Opening of resort's newest amenity Mr. James L. Shipstone, Chairman of the Nottingham Brewing firm of James Shipstone and Sons Ltd., formally opened the firm's new Welcome Inn at Burgh Road Skegness yesterday (Tuesday) morning, before a large assembly and in glorious sunshine. He had some nice things to say about Skegness in the course of doing so. Skegness had the best air in the world, he said, and he intimated that the combination of that and Shipstone's beer would be a good thing. He wished them to know that they were all welcome in "The Welcome". It was their second and probably last, foothold in Skegness, their earlier house being The Shades, in Lumley Road, for which he had always had a particular affection, and hoped that the Welcome would be a worthy younger brother to that establishment. He thought that all would be pleased with it, and he hoped that everyone who used it would gain great pleasure and happiness from it. Welcome and farewell He felt it would be much appreciated by the many Nottingham people who came to Skegness. The Inn was just about a mile from the Clock Tower, and he could imagine what any Nottingham father would say, after having had the children on the beach all the morning, when the appropriate time arrived. (Laughter). They hoped that for many it would provide a welcome to Skegness, and a farewell to Skegness too. (Applause). He wished to pay tribute to all who had been concerned with its erection and equipment. "It is Skegness people who have built it" he said "and we think that if you are going to erect an inn in a resort, you should let the people build it who are going to drink in it, and vice-versa." (Applause). They also had the most wonderful co-operation from all the authorities with whom they had to deal, he said. First for 22 years Coun. L. N. Walthall, J.P., Chairman of the Skegness U.D.C. said that the Welcome Inn was a welcome addition to the many hotels in the resort and the first which had been built there for some 22 years, and Skegness had between 14 and 18 hotels all told. Skegness was known as Nottingham-by-the-Sea, so many Nottingham people came here during the year, and it was appropriate that a Nottingham firm should provide that new amenity. Skegness considered the new venture a first-class effort, and wished it every success. Mr. Shipstone then unlocked the door of the main entrance with a golden key, and an official party followed for the invited guests, whilst at the same time large numbers of local people took the opportunity of having a first drink in the Welcome Inn. A detailed description of the Welcome Inn, the picturesque features of which are enhanced by its being floodlit at night, appears on page three of this issue.36 |

In the bottom picture, Mr. Shipstone is seen receiving the golden key with which he unlocked the door of the Welcome Inn at mid-day last Tuesday, watched intently by his wife - who has just been presented with a bouquet - and by Coun.

In the centre picture Mr. and Mrs. Shipstone pose for a souvenir photograph with Mr. Ralph Crooks, manager of the hotel, and Mrs. Crooks.

| (Subject) Newspaper | 12 September 1970 | James Leslie Shipstone and The Shipstones Brewery were the subject of a newspaper article on 12 September 1970. Beer soon to cost 2d. pint more Prices of some beers are likely to go up within a week or so by as much as a penny a bottle or twopence a pint. The 12 month price standstill which was agreed by the brewers and licensees last November, was lifted yesterday. The Minister of Agriculture, Mr. James Prior, announced his decision to release the brewers and licencees from their undertaking after they urged that increased wages and distribution costs had changed the circumstances. Unfair The minister said: "At this time rigid control over beer prices is neither fair nor conductive to efficiency". Nor was it in accord with the present government's policy of free competition in an open market. Earlier in the day, the Whitbread group gave warning that prices could not be held any longer. The Brewer's Society said breweries rising costs in nearly all departments had swallowed up all increases granted by the prices and Incomes Board last year. No Stampeding Mr. James Shipstone chairman of James Shipstone and Sons, the city brewers, said last night: "We are not going to be stampeded by the other breweries. We shall make our own decisions, but these are early days to say much about it. "We shall do our best to keep our prices down but if you get these idiot increases in everything, things will have to take their course." he added. Mr. Norman de Johns, past president of the National Federation of Licensed Victuallers, said he did not anticipate many increases before the end of November.47 |
