I post this week’s Friday Photo with my friend and colleague Tracey Thorne in mind. For the ghost sign, rather than the building being a pub! The Gosta Green is found on the Aston University campus. The ghost sign on the side says ‘Holt Brewery Co Ltd Brewers of Malt Ales & Stouts…’ I can’t read the bottle line but it’s something about wine. According the website midlandspubs.co.uk the Holt Brewery Company Ltd was founded in 1887 in Aston. They soon bought out other local breweries and gained a good foothold in the Birmingham market. Ultimately they were absorbed into Ansells brewery in 1934.
