The notebook , An ideally sized pocket notebook is crammed with brewings carried out at 

Evershed`s Bank Square brewery whilst Wm J Younger was a pupil there in the 1890`s ; 

 One noticeable difference in the beers of Evershed`s and those of John Marston & Sons in, 

The early 1890`s is the absence of both Brewing Sugars and Adjunct Cereals in those produced at 

Evershed`s brewery which was to close about fourteen years afterwards ,

Not long after their subsumation into the larger corporate folds of their Burton neighbours , 

Marston , Thompson & Co Ltd in 1905 .
