The Northampton and Leicestershire Clubs’ Brewery was one of several similar breweries set up after the First World War (to escape the strangle-hold of the big brewers who were seen as the bastions of the Tory Party). It started brewing in 1921 and occupied an old maltings building in Syston Street, Leicester (3). It became known as the Midland Clubs Brewery in 1960 but closed in 1969. The building survives as a food warehouse.
