Tolly Cobbold

Brian Cowie and Bob Wales led a management buy-out of the brewery (but not the pubs) for £4m, supported by the Tollemaches and Cobbolds among others.

Greene King have not indicated any plans to continue brewing it, but remained a major sponsor of Ipswich Town F.C.,[9] which was established by the Cobbold family in 1878.

[10] The Cobbolds have an important status in Ipswich as the family were landowners in the town and surrounding area.

ITFC have named a stand in their stadium[13] and a prestigious member's club[14] after the Cobbold family.
