Along with 52 pubs, The Old Albion Brewery, Sheffield, was acquired by the Worksop and Retford Brewery in 1939. It was originally founded around 1840, took up the Old Albion name in 1889 and was registered as such in 1897. It was situated at 69/71 Ecclesall Road (the current site of a branch of Waitrose). During the Second World War, this allowed the company to sell in the Sheffield area even though the distance was too far to allow direct delivery from Worksop. The brewery was demolished in 1950 . This photo is of the former Bulls Head Hotel, Dun Street (off Shalesmoor S3 8SL). The pub closed many years ago. It has an attractive tiled frontage with raised fascia lettering: 'OLD ALBION 6X BEERS & STOUTS.' It was renovated in 1994 to offices. Ellis, Willis & Beckett are a family run firm of Chartered Surveyors and Auctioneers originally established in 1870. The building is currently unused. It has an attractive tiled frontage with raised fascia lettering: 'OLD ALBION 6X BEERS & STOUTS.'
