Brewery Museum
Burton Albion
Welcome to Burton 2000. This site was setup on 15th November 1999 for the sole purpose of letting the world know what a beautiful town we live in. Burton upon Trent has a colorful past and history, and is probably best known in the world as a Brewery town. The town has changed dramatically over the last 10 years let alone the last 100. I will bring together old archive pictures of the thriving market town during Victorian times up to the new developments around Burton. Including historical accounts of the Burton Monks, the River Trent, the Washlands and more.
I would love your comments on it or anything to do with Burton.
I hope you enjoy your stay, and please sign the Guest book.

Burton Flour Mills
At last the restoration work is almost complete at the mill and I would like to thank kevin Ellis the property developer and all of his staff for for their help and for allowing me on site over the past four years, in this time I have taken in excess of over 1100 photographs to record the restoration.
The Gainsborough team have made a derelict site into something to be proud of, Their work has been to the highest standard and they should be proud of what they have achieved at the mill. The Greensmith family are happy that the mill has been saved and restored for future generations to enjoy and for people to live there as well.
Please go to my Gallery section for the mill pictures past and present, over the winter months I shall be putting up all the rest of the pictures. If any Society or Club would like a slide show and talk all about the mills please send me an email for more information.
Regards
Arthur
