Old livestock hauliers shropshire

Gardner 120:
I scanned this from a book on the 70s - it’s from Birkenhead, November 1974 and shows Welsh farmers protesting against the import of Irish cattle - top right is the Woodside Hotel. The driver of the H reg Ford looks nervous enough - Does anyone know the firm?

My late Brother John used to drive for Troughtons Transport based at Falfield in Gloucestershire back in the late 1960s. They used to run several lorries up to Birkenhead to load Irish cattle. I’d love to see photos of their lorries. They ran several Thames Traders, a Ford D series & a Seddon Artic. I believe they also ran an Ergomatic cabbed AEC towards the end. Lovely memories.
