Thomas Cobbold (1680–1752)
Thomas Cobbold ( April, 1680, Rattlesden–1752) was an English brewer who established a family brewery in Ipswich. The Cobbold family went on to become one of the most influential families in Ipswich.
He was the son of John Cobbold (1654 – 1736) and Mary Parker (1650 – 1693). He set up as a maltster in Bury St Edmunds.[1] However in 1723 he established a brewery in King's Quay Street, Harwich.[2] However the water in Harwich was brackish. As Thomas owned some land near Holywells, near Ipswich, he started shipping the water from there to Harwich for use in his brewing business.[3][2]
