Workington Brewery, Ladies Walk, Workington, Cumbria
The Workington Brewery company was founded by John Curwen in 1792. This 19th century indicator shows the quantity of fluid held in the (mash) tun, by means of a chain, seen at the top of the indicator, which is linked to a weighing machine system. In order to keep the quality of the beer consistent it is important to know exactly what quantities of each ingredient are being added to the brew.
