Further to the above post, what is now the ADM Chancelot mill at Leith, Edinburgh, was an Allied Mills site, but the old Chancelot Mill was a Scottish iCWS mill, and the new mill was built to replace it. This AEC Mammoth Minor was in service with Chancelot Mill in the late 1960s.
This picture brings back memories of my childhood. My father drove for Chancelot for 30 year until 1989

In the early 1970s it became more cost effective to ship containers of flour over to Northern Ireland. One such container seen leaving Beaufort Road Mill, Birkenhead. and second picture shows one being handled in Belfast.Cracking N.I.T. photos, thank you! There were some more taken of a Spillers tank, perhaps at Preston Dock, in the early 70s, and featuring an early Borderer. You don’t have copies of those, perchance?

Hi Chris
I think they are still there but have not been up that way for a long time.
It has changed a lot around that area. Most if not all of the Pirelli factory has gone for new housing and a big print firm Caustons gone the same way.
