That’s them,Holts. Thanks for that Malc.I suppose a lot of these firms have “pulled t’pin”?
J A Holt & Sons also operated coaches and they got quite big in that doing the 3 football and rugby teams from Hull. The trucks were sold off and the traffic office juniors who were called Brian Yeardley and David Riby left and eventually set up on their own
Jack Holts son, Glen is back in transport again, but in construction and caravan transport trading as City Plant hire.
All the other names have gone through retirement many years ago. Stuart and Philip Harper are running a truck each. Glen Holts cousins are now using the old Hewson Bros depot at Howden running a well established business.
