Hiya …it looks like its parked at Colas at Saltney out side the stores. the pallets also look like the ones used for
the use of 25kg pails into containers 3 high on the bottom pallet and 2 high on the top one.also paper keg bitumen
pallets. that all adds up.

I worked for Great Bear at Newton depot on the Levers contract, David Williams was one of the best bosses I,ve ever worked for . If I still lived in the UK thats who I,d still be with I did 10 yrs and enjoyed them all

I’ve been on the lookout for photos of Williams Bros wagons from their Queensferry yard, but so far this is the only one I’ve managed to come across which was based at Denbigh:-

I can remember their high sided tippers bringing coke to the school boiler-house in the 60’s

Can anyone help with more photos of Williams Bros? Any info would be appreciated.
