Hello Shugg, As far as I know they still have the depot in Holloway Drive, Wardley Ind Est, Manchester, I was told a while ago that their Deptford Greenland Wharf had closed down as a result of all the newsprint reels from Finland was unloaded at Tilbury, ■■?, Sorry no photos, Regards Larry.

Many thanks Larry.
The old Deptford wharf is all yuppie flats now.
Spent many afternoons waiting for back loads in there !
Aye I used to go there quite often, They had a lot of Tent sort of storage in those days, I was told that there was no planning permission involved & no extra rates to pay as they were not classed as a permenant building, They weren’t a bad crowd in there I allways thought that they were very helpful when I was tippin there & re-loading as I did a few times, All long gone now as you say, Happy days Eh, Regards Larry.
