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.

Hi piccolo, i worked at Tyzack sons and Turner, i remember going down to mountfords to strip out all the electrical stuff, what department did you work in

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.
