Heritage

We as a family have been keen to preserve some of our carriage heritage and we have restored two London Horse Buses and two London built horse drawn Fire engines. We operate and demonstrate these vehicles keeping alive the
historic skills associated with them. We work closely with The London Bus Museum and London transport Museum who strive to keep the transport heritage alive.

We also work with museums that contain period buildings from the horse drawn days. We are also keen to work with listed stables and workshops in London to enable them to maintain them for the future.

"I thought you would like to know that the Regent Street Association estimate that 340,000 people were on the street on 3 July – a very impressive number! Once again thanks for all your help and support. Best wishes"
