Thanks for posting this. Marcus Stout (one of the Stout bros.) was my great uncle.
ReplyDeleteMy father worked here when they had the new name sign put up. It originally said "Stout Brothens"; the reason being that the sign erectors had broken the last letter "R" in their van and were left with choice of either "N" or "L". Sensibly they chose the "N" until a new letter "R" arrived a few days later.
ReplyDeleteBefore Stouts bought this garage it was The Angus Garage. I remember my Dad buying an Avenger there in the early 70s.
