Context

Morrell's Brewery, founded as the Lion Brewery in 1743 by Richard Tawney, became Morrell's in 1782 when he partnered with Mark and James Morrell, and later they became the owners. After James Morrell's death, his ten-year-old daughter Emily inherited the brewery and the family's estates, which were managed by trustees.
