No Nathan.The Seddon Atkinson at that time was one of two eight leggers that were new to Roberts of Knighton and was being loaded at the old Nash Quarry with a load for the Leominster bypass.The quarry has been mothballed since the 1970’s,but was reopened temporarily for stone when the bypass was being built.
Cheers Dave.

I did wonder Dave, as the first pic it looked like the wagon was loading off a radial elevator (used for stockpiling). Loading under a screener doesn’t happen much anymore; I haven’t done since I was dumper driving in late’98.

Just looked at this pic again but on laptop (shows more of the pic) and it is a screener; Must’ve been desperate for stock to load it that way.
