piccolo Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Hi, yes I remember Mountfords, they made scythes and were well known for their ground flat stock. I worked for Tyzack Sones & Turner and we took over Mountfords sometime in the 1970s. I worked down there for a few weeks before it was closed.

piccolo Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Hi, around the time Mountfords closed I would have been working either in inspection or estimating. I can remember the Mountfords scythes being added to the Tyzack range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
