Cullingworth haulage

This name came up last week in the yorkshire post. I think they had a yard in harehills in leeds. But I’m not sure .does anyone remember them. I grew up in harehills in them days every type of truck and company traveled up and down the a58 right passed our street, I think that’s where I got my interest in the haulage. Business

i worked for cullingworths for a very short time in 1968 at the time we only had 4 and 6 wheel albion tippers. just before i left, they bought a brand new yellow seddon artic with a van trailer to go on elida gibbs work the yard was behind the v o s a offfice lying between lupton avenue and the small road leading between lupton avenue and harehills lane at the side of the garage the transport manager was a midget [not joking] called harry…hope this is of some help

Thanks Harry h. I know where you mean like I said I grew up in harehills ,I remember seeing there wagons about but I couldnt remember were the yard was. Its taken 18 months to get an answer but we got there in the end cheers
