'Gopsill Brown & Sons Ltd. started in Gloucester and obtained a contract from the Great Western Railway to hire out sacks in Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire and Shropshire. The company also made use of canals and the River Thames to run a fast service between Gloucester and London.' [From the Vale & Downland Museum web site, Wantage] |
