Description: | Luker's Brewery in College Street was bought by Robert Luker from the Craft family, and passed on to his sons William and Robert. It remained a family business until the 1930s when it was sold to Strongs of Romsey. The brewing was transferred to Romsey and Strongs sold the brewery building to the Filer family.
In 1933 fire destroyed the tower; the chimney remained but was unsafe. It took a demolition team a week to get it down.
