Frederick Rayner recorded in 1895. Brewhouse stood next door to the pub of the same name.
John Arguile writes:
The Bell Hotel, a former coaching inn dating back to at least 1720, was owned by Frederick Rayner from 1889 until his death in 1904.The inn’s home brewed beer was bottled and sold widely in that period. Brewing ceased and the plant was put up for sale in 1906. His predecessor J F King (1865-1889) is also known to have brewed at the Bell Brewery. No record of brewing exists after 1904.
