Context
Administrative/Biographical history:
The Matthews and Cannings brewery in Chelsea was bought by Whitbread in 1899. At that time it was valued at £274,000 which included 100 tied houses taking most of the 60,000 barrels being produced. Unlike the previous Whitbread purchases, Matthews and Cannings was kept open as a brewery with Charles Crawshay, previous manager and one of the old owners, kept on to run it. Charles Crawshay was also made a managing director of Whitbread.
