“In 1882, the pioneering sugar refiner William Garton moved his premises from Canute Road in Southampton, where he had been based since 1847, to a new refinery at Southampton Wharf in Battersea. Originally a brewer, Garton had developed a type of invert-sugar, which he called saccharum, that was ideally suited for the brewing industry, so he moved into producing that rather than beer and he made a fortune. The site as Battersea was known as the Garton, Hill and Company sugar refinery and it was a large employer in the area.” https://books.google.ca/books?id=AVDWCQAAQBAJ&lpg=PT16&dq=%22garton%20hill%22&pg=PT16#v=onepage&q&f=false
