Arkell is a place in the district of Puslinch Ontario Canada. Named after John Arkell the founder of the Swindon Brewers founded the town with a few friends....born in Kempsford nr Fairford he returned to make his fortune with the Kingsdown brewery The Town in Canada named after him is now a thriving place and Brewers are still a tradition there. I didn't know that :D Title: Re: Canadian Arkells Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Thursday, December 2, 2010, 21:14:57 Haha are you bored Leefer? Interesting find all the same.
