Phil,you are correct,LTD was Lancashire Tar Distillers with sites at Preston and Cadishead on the A57 west of Manchester.
Nice photo of a company I remember well in the 60s and 70s. 
My first solo delivery with a lift tank
I forgot about their place at Litherland Malc,used to take wet acetone in from Glaxo at Ulverston,the place was falling apart like the one at Cadishead.When was that photo taken,any idea?
This photo was taken on July 18, 2009.
Do you remember the explosion at Solvay Interox. We had a great job running Hydrogen Peroxide over to Warrington, it lasted about 8 months and we had 3 trucks double shifted from Hull or Immingham

Did Williams used to carry TVs/washing machines in the late 60s/early 70s ?
Seem to remember seeing them delivering to an electrical appliance shop near my home when i was a kid and thinking . . .
Its a removals co, electrical firms dont sell furniture 
IIRC,the place was called Robshaws ?
