Scope and Content

Records from J and A Higginbottom Ltd., Motor Marine and General Engineers, The Quay, Conwy.

Note from depositor:

Alfred Higginbottom and his father James came from Lancashire in the early 1920s with their family and settled in Llandudno. Alfred was an engineer in Lancashire before he came here. They started the business in about 1925, repairing cars and marine engines. Over the years they expanded into general engineering, welding and lathe work. Peter joined them after leaving school and continued the business until about 1982. Due to lack of suitable staff as the older staff began to retire, the business closed down.
