DISCLAIMER: Readers should be aware that this reproduction of Terry Spencer's original study concerning Carters' Knottingley Brewery has been transcribed by myself from a copy presented to me almost two decades ago and in a format not entirely compatible with modern day word processing software. Any errors through transcribing are thus entirely my own fault so I would advise interested parties to verify any relevant information they might otherwise wish to make use of.
