Old companys from stoke -on trent

After months of following this thread with great interest have finally managed to sort some pics that may be of interest to you Stoke guys.These are as a result of being invited up to meet Mr Beresford and have a look around after I wrote to him as an enthusiast of his company.

These were taken 1982 at the yard in Tunstall


This is a copy of a Beresford traffic plan for the continental boys shipping out .I’m sure some of the drivers names will jog a few memories with you all.

Gud pics there

fantastic photos buddy

Here’s a few more.Believe this 4wheeler has been restored in the Beresford green colours and does the classic circuit occassionally.

One of Beresfords early MAN’s when they started to move away from the Buy British trend.This was taken in the yard August 83

This was taken at Toddington a magnet for all the euro trucks heading south on a Sunday .I used to meet some of the drivers there on route.

The photo of the Beresford M.A.N could not be taken August 1983 the vehicle is ‘B’ reg so must be 84/85. :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Sorry BB your right I should have put Aug 84 :blush: :blush: :blush:

These are from one of several journies I was lucky to go on with driver Jack Kelly (a lovely bloke-old school)in a very rare Beresford Scania.
