one last shot ABR & Co signifies A Boake Roberts and Co. In the 70s still, all along here was the smell of Oil of Wintergreen. The firm moved to Witham as Bush Boake Allen and Co, hence the smell of artificial flavourings drifting over the A12 there. Well, certainly in the 80s the operation continued at Witham Now part of IFF...International Flavors and Fragrances Inc. Bush were at Ash Grove, Mare Street E8 certainly into the mid 1950s, where the present bus garage is. A branch of A Boake Roberts was established in Blackhorse Lane E17 c 1956 (British history online) which became BBA in 1966. Elsewhere on Flickr there are photos of the dereliction of the BBR plant at Long Melford which must also have closed. This was the site of Stafford Allen & Sons. |
