Multiple Brands - Teesdale Garage, 167 Hucknall Road, Nottingham 1930's
I've had a good look for this and initially I couldn't find any convincing location. There's a Texaco garage on Hucknall Road here....... www.google.com/maps/@52.9726831,-1.1544898,3a,75y,279.96h....
but I am certain it's not the same place. So then I went all along Hucknall Road on a 1965 OS map and found two other sites where there were once garages in 1965. The first was here and now an Indian Restaurant! www.google.com/maps/@52.9831646,-1.1581873,3a,75y,79.62h,... I am certain it was not here as there is no factory next door as there is in the old picture above nor is one marked on the OS map. The second one however was right next door to a large factory in the exact same alignment so I suspect that here is the same view in the present day and roughly was number 167 in the past www.google.com/maps/@52.9784226,-1.1567621,3a,75y,270h,90...
Great to see a recovery truck of the era!
