Woodham's Brewery 1750
Woodhams Brewery on the corner of Victoria Street and East Row was in the 1960's, a depot for Cantrell and Cochrane. They were the "soft drinks" subsidiary of Courage (Eastern) or Courage Barclay and Perkins as they subsequently re-branded themselves. Woodhams had been known as the Rochester Steam Brewery. At the end of the site towards Crow Lane where the two detached modern houses are now, was an above-ground water reservoir building of brick, used originally for the brewery. The tall tower building at Woodhams Brewery was the main brew-house but on a more modest scale than the ones used by Fremlins and Courages at their respective breweries in Maidstone and elsewhere in the county. Style and Winch were one of the old Kentish breweries which had originally acquired Woodhams about 1918, before themselves subsequently becoming part of the Courage group. There must have been a period when Rochester and Chatham were regularly suffused with the pleasant aroma of malted barley on brewing days, as was Maidstone every week when Courages and Fremlins were still present in the town in the 1960's. Faversham still has this pleasure, thanks to Shepherd Neame.
