In 1947 Alfred Hill (my father) left Park Royal Vehicles, along with two other colleagues (Percy Hayward & Freddy Biggs), to set up a company to design and manufacture caravans. They made several models (please see the Products & Works Pages). My father also modified cars to convert them to "Shooting Brakes".
Due to the scarcity of parts just after WW2 and also complaints from neighbouring houses about noise at their Hillingdon site, they were forced to close. My father returned to PRV just two years later.
