Abstract:

What is uncommon about this dealership is the lot’s vehicles: fork lifts. What else uncommon about this company: how it came to be, with origins stretching back to 1918 and W.L. Gregory. As it’s revealed, Poole’s great-uncle, in serving the town’s need for road contractors, would pave the way for a company that recently celebrated its twenty fifth anniversary.
