Hi John father sold it on to a dealer as the chassis was cracked and repaired ,the dealer sold it on to this firm in Reading ,I’ve not been your way for a while ,plenty coming back but not much to get down with cheers Dan .
I wonder what became of that NORDE tanker of Longcliffes, scrapped by Mr Geason I suppose?
Pete.
Does anyone recall a yellow 4 wheeler ERF LV, based at Ryan & Sommerville’s in the late 60s. I think the operator was called Geoff or Ron Puddle, if so what become of him? It was around the time that John Cantrell and Ron Wharton had their Seddon’s there.
Every possibility that some of these have already been posted in the past but know harm in showing them again to keep this thread going.
(Not my photos by the way) So if anyone owns up to them and wants them removing I will remove them.


I think that’s Phil Wilmot in the Sed Ak 400, he still has a truck on Ennstone-Breedon I believe?

Two great pics Dan. Been some years since the plant was removed from Middleton.
I had to visit Kevin quarry in Staffordshire a few weeks ago, now used as a mixing plant, quarrying ceased there a few years ago apparently
Any Ideas where the name Kevin came from ■■

Considering I worked for the company that owned it for 25 years, and carted out of there many times, I haven’t a clue! Back in the sixties, pre Tilling Construction days, the trucks were painted white the same as Ballidon quarry ones but where the name ‘Kevin’ appeared from is odd. The actual address is Ramshorn, Mick (Malmic), are you viewing this and can please enlighten us?

I’ve no idea where the name came from Pete .I’d say ask an old timer but I suppose you’ve just done that!
