Garton, Hill and Company Sugar Refinery
From London's Ghost Acres
“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
