One of the country’s oldest brewers is Swindon-based Arkell’s Brewery, which started brewing beer in 1843. Arkell’s Brewery is one of only 33 family breweries left in the United Kingdom. The Brewery was established by John Arkell in 1843 as an offshoot of the family farm, on the outskirts of Swindon.
