An interesting read as we are on the subject of garages.
The garage was a blacksmiths before the garage.
The Ernest Haydon as mentioned in the text was the foreman when I did my indentured apprenticeship.

Using the centre post ramp on the right I have serviced many a Minor.

Bill
Thank you
My Minor 2 door saloon WDF 714 was sold by F W Cutts & Co and registered on the 01/01/1958.
She was collected from Cowley and driven back to chipping Campden on trade plates.
When I did my apprenticeship I used to work on and service WDF 714 before I bought her for £152 with 42K on the clock.
She was immaculate and completely standard back then.

A fantastic link to your Minor and it's history. My apprenticeship was 1968-1973 when was yours if you bought a 1958 car?

Same car, same family owners; uncle (1956) and nephew (2022)

Not exactly a picture, new or old style, but my car still has the supplying dealer sticker in place above the left side glovebox aperture.
