Bit long, but with this gem:
Marston's Union Room.
Where are the troughs? These don't look like the unions in Bernard.
Makes me proud to be obsessed.

Tax on beer, eh? The never-ending story. What would Governments have done without it? Fought less wars, that's what.

Off topic, Ron, the Lovibonds 1864 has finished fermenting and is looking very good - it's hoppy!
I am fascinated by the Burton Union system. I thought the troughs were above the barrels, no? I've never had the pleasure of seeing them in person, but they look similar to other pictures I've seen of them, like on this blog:
