Answers:
the brewery was amalgamated with websters in halifax which sadly closed in the 80's I went on a brewery visit around websters in the late 70's one of 4 I've been round and it was the cleanest most well cared for brewery I've ever seenWww@FoodAQ@Com

The brewery closed in 1987 and the brand ceased in 1998
