Millmore’s Garage

Millmore’s Garage. By Michael Freeman.  Matthew Martin Millmore started this garage business after WW2, and expanded it with his sons Alan and Joe. In 1958, Joe emigrated to Australia where his sister Mary Millmore (later Sheehan) lived. The Millmore family were supporters of Holy Trinity Church where Matthew was a churchwarden and his wife Rose Ellen a Sunday School Superintendent. Pictures show Millmore’s vans and drivers in front of the garage in about 1947, and the garage in the early 1950s with a new forecourt, kiosk and petrol pumps.
