Fermenting vessels at Tetley's brewery, Leeds, West Yorkshire, 1968. The Tetley family's links with the beer industry reach back into the 1740s when William Tetley was described as a maltster in Armley. His son William then expanded the business, and it was then passed to his son Joshua. The original brewery was opened on the south banks of the river Aire in Leeds in 1822 and by the late 2000s 200 million pints of beer were being brewed on the site every year. Tetley's were taken over in 1998 by Danish brewers Carlsberg. In 2008, citing falling demand for beer as the reason, they announced plans to close the Leeds brewery in 2011 and move production to Northampton.
