| | Address | Derby House, Athol Street |
| | | | | | | | Extra info | Downwards produced carbonated drinks on the Isle of Man until the 1970s . On the island the brewing of non-alcoholic ginger beer, soda and other mineral water production began on a commercial scale about 1850 with a substantial number of individual manufacturers, many of them being purely local in character and supply. By 1972 only four were still in business, namely Downward's, Irvings (Peel)' Kelly's and Qualtrough's. Of these Downward was merged with Qualtrough as part of the SmithKline Beecham-Glaxo group and is now the only survivor of the industry. |
