Ged Ling 5 Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Hello all... I wondered if anyone on here can remember a 'Siddons' garage or car sales in Nottingham or Nottinghamshire ? from around the early 1960s... could have been an Austin Dealership ? Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Compo 10,328 Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Near the Lido on Mansfield Road, Carrington. If I remeber correctly, I went for an interview there for a clerk's post in 1967. There was a large advert (hoarding?) I think it read: "Siddons for Ford and Austin". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
littlebro 234 Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Siddons' Garage was at 329 Mansfield Road (which later became Bristol Street Motors, now Lidl). Siddons' Garage Ltd was wound up in 1971 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hilary anne 0 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Sorting through my grandparents' things, I have found a receipt from Siddons Garage, 329 Mansfield Road, dated 3 June 1927 for an Austin Seven priced at £145. By the time insurance, tax and delivery charges were added, my grandfather forked out some £159.18s.6d! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
