Three long-serving employees of award-winning Timothy Taylor's brewery were rewarded at a special ceremony at the brewery's Albert Hotel on Tuesday.

Draymen Sid Stanton and Ray Lambert, and brewhouse operative David Henfrey, were each presented with a crystal tankard and a picture of the brewery in recognition of their loyalty over a combined total of 78 years.

Sid also received other presents from colleagues to mark his retirement after 15 years at Timothy Taylor.
