Hauled out of Barnsley in the seventies, has anyone got any pictures/tales about this old firm please. 
Sharps ran out of a depot on Wakefield Road, mainly hauling for the Star Paper Mills which closed in the early eighties (now Asda Barnsley). I remember them having Atkinson tractor units finished in a plain but attractive light blue livery. I don’t remember when they finished, probably at about the same time as the mill closed. I regret not taking any photos at the time - there was no need, they would last forever - wouldn’t they?
the duncan sharp i remember were red and white atkys - sed aks then daf 2800 twin steers they all went like the wind they had a yard in irlam m/c , got taken over by a group and the wagons became green
