Preserving History

The secret recipe of E Lazenby & Sons Harvey’s Sauce saw the pickle manufacturers become a household name and they expanded by purchasing their “gigantic kitchens” on Crimscott Street, Bermondsey. In 1919 the company was fused with Crosse and Blackwell and 5 years later The Branston Pickle Brand was born and stirred into Bermondsey’s history.

Crosse and Blackwell was founded in 1929 when two apprentice friends – Edmund Crosse and Thomas Blackwell bought out the grocers West and Wyatt. Making pickles, preserves and bottled fruit, Crosse and Blackwell are said to have produced a quarter of London’s jam consumption.

In 1924 a new kitchen was built on the Crosse and Blackwell site which was known as the ‘Great Addition’ and the factory continued to concoct chutneys, jellys and relishes until 1969.
