Ray Smyth:
Is this the place where Dennis used to buy his sheets and flysheets ?
This is W.J. Leech in Vauxhall Road in Liverpool. Ray Smyth.
Thanks for the shot Ray and yes Leeches were always my main supplier for our sheets and ropes over many years and I have been in that workshop a number of times. Alan Leech was the owner and Jimmy ■■? was the Manager who I mainly dealt with. After Leeches packed up Jimmy, I believe, started up on his own in St. Helens but by that time the Tautliners had taken hold and in the final years I dealt with Stuart Canvas for the diminishing sheet requirements of the flat trailers we still ran as we always had a pile of first class redundant sheets as more Tautliners joined the trailer fleet ! Cheers Dennis.
