Ashford’s Ice Cream

In the summer of 1971 I worked at the Bowling Green Road dairy, which was still in production. I made a lot of ice cream there that summer. It was the year that George retired. He had made ice-cream there for many years and taught me. On the first day of his retirement he walked in wearing a smart jacket and tie. He obviously didn’t trust us to continue making it without him. He went home eventually.
I have fond memories of working with Neil, Gill, Denise, Maureen, Karen, Mark Harrison and managers Ray Griffiths and Joe.

Hello, I used to regularly collect up to 8 or 10 pallets of ice cream from Lowndes Road site and I would like to know what happened to the delivery fleet especially the 2 Guy Big J 4 wheeler lorries and the six-wheeler Leyland Reiver.  Would you know who the relatively new tall ice cream coldstore was sold to?

Tim - 16:58 - 22 August 2019

In approximately 1970 I used to regularly go into the Lowndes Road site to collect two pallets of ice cream in a Groucotts Frozen Food of Stafford insulated transit van. A few years later I was collecting four pallets of ice cream in a refrigerated seven tonner and soon after in a refrigerated sixteen tonner.  The loading bay staff would always invite me into the canteen at tea break time for a cup of tea and I recall Denis, who I think lived in Lower Gornall, proudly showing me the five stack high new ice cream cold store some years later. When Ashfords sold equipment off it frequently came to our depot in Stafford and I expect the Guy Big J’s, the six wheeler Leyland Reiver, and probably the Scanias and their trailers would have eventually ended up at our depot when they were sold as the business growth at Groucotts was also becoming very rapid and good quality second hand equipment was so much cheaper. Like Ashfords, Groucotts Frozen Foods was also sold out to a larger concern. I have very fond memories of the great guys who I met over the years. My best wishes to you all. Tim Groucott.
