Of course, the normal livery brings it all back, now! KJ’s MAN , which led the coal convoy, was a darker shade of green with no signwriting- no point in courting trouble!
Many thanks to you all who prompted an Old ■■■■’s brain cell. To get back to the original point, Ken Jones provided the contract haulage for H&Ps South Wales operation, although I believe that one or two vehicles were owner driven, as were some of the fleet at Poynton.

G&K Hi , Keymead would have hauled paper reels that had been landed on the Old Town dock , by small coasters .
Steel coils were also landed in this manner and hauled by Mallet Transport, and they too were based on the dock .
Keymead were owned by Paul Fairweather group as well as Stanco exhibitions .@
