History
Clayton & Brewill is one of Nottinghamshire's longest established independent firms of chartered accountants.
A strong heritage
Back in June 1946, Walter Clayton and Basil Brewill opened a small accountancy practice in Nottingham’s Wellington Circus. During the 1950s the firm took over a number of small accountancy practices and opened a branch office in Melton Mowbray to service the firm’s growing base of agricultural and farming clients, many of which are family businesses that remain with the firm today. Expansion continued during the 1960s and, needing larger premises, Clayton & Brewill moved into its Canal Street offices in 1967.
Celebrating 70 years
In June 2016 Clayton & Brewill was 70 years old. To mark our anniversary as one of the East Midlands’ longest-established firms of chartered accountants we raised £ 5,000 for The Nottinghamshire & Lincolnshire Air Ambulance.
Starting with a charity abseil on, our team took part in a range of sporting and other endeavours during the year to play a small part in helping the Air Ambulance team raise the money it needs every year to keep flying, including running the London Marathon and organising a drinks events and golf day.
Looking to the future
