My dad worked for lancasters and hamptons of mitcham for years and had loads of stories,and a j bull was in the same yard where i still work but it is Sita now.a j bull took over lots of south london firms eg.Marco,Penfold,catlan bannock,glovers of mitcham,thomas bros of kingston and many more. going back to Hamptons i have fond memories of the lorries as i was always with my dad,so since 1958 til now i am still in the same yard.
Ever so slightly late with this reply, but my father worked for Lancasters. He was on an ex army Bedford artic. Don’t remember much more except that I think it was green.
