South Wales Hauliers sixties and seventies onwards (Part 1)

Dave the Renegade:
As you mentioned Edwards of Lydbrook, there was also Richard Read of Longhope as well as his brothers Harold end Fred who all had fleets, Fred operating from Hereford, I think there were six brothers all in transport. Two still operating.
Doe,s anyone remember going into BOCM and Spillers at Cardiff and Avonmouth docks in the fifties and sixties also Barry dock.

The Read brothers were Richard, Harold, George, Ivor and Fred who were all in transport. Brother David had coal lorries in the Oldham area I believe.

Regarding Avonmouth, I used to go with my dad to BOCM and Silcocks for bags in the '60’s, he drove a Seddon (Reg JMO 1) for Laws Transport in Reading. Fond memories.
