Snippets:
Alfred Howgego (Jnr) took delivery of B265CD at Fryerning Hall. Ingatestone. The family of Howgego family were market traders and in the late 1920s actually had their own “Brass Coinage”. this was when fruit & veg were supplied in wooden boxes and the purchaser would be charge a deposit and given a token which would be exchanged upon return on the box. The Howegeo's had Caledon lorries as early as the 1910s with the name “Howgage” sign-written on the side. There are several early newspaper references (1911/29) to Alfred Howgego being fined & summoned to court. his offences included cycling without a light. leaving a car unattended & driving too fast! The barn at Fryerning Hall is dated 1289 when it was erected by the Knights Hospitallers. they had been granted the right to hold a market at Ingatestone but during the Reformation all of their properties were confiscated by the Crown & Fryerning Hall was bought by Lady Dorothy Wadham (daughter of Sir Petre of Ingatstone Hall). After the death of her husband (Sir Nicholas Wadham) Lady Dorothy used her inheritance to found Wadham College. Oxford. The second name on the chassis cards is that of Anthony Robert Klitz who. from all accounts was an accomplished musician (Jazz) and artist. He was best known for his impressionist style of urban cityscapes with his work being exhibited in London and Dublin prior to his becoming an internationally known painter.
