Yeo Wheelwright Business Handover

This document was kindly loaned by Mr Clive Hendon, who vividly remembers the business the Yeo family used to run in the village along Chippenham Road. He recalls the family were very skilled carpenters and wheelwrights, often building and repairing many of the community horse drawn wagons in the mid to early 1930's.

The paperwork records that Mr G.H. Yeo formally thanking the village for their support over the previous 40 years and then formally handing over his Wheelwright business to Mr Edward James Yeo, his son, known in the community as Jimmy, on the 1st July 1929
