Marstons are the latest on my hit list after killing The Mill Tavern in Higher Walton stone dead in three months.
My other half used to Work for Burtonwood Brewery, just before she retired they were taken over by Marstons, or Wolverhampton and Dudley brewery before they too were swallowed up by Marstons, the last time I was round Joan's neck of the woods the old Burtonwood houses were either shut or under a different banner, can't understand their mentality really if all the pubs shut where will they sell their ale
