Jonathan Lane Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Does anyone know when Gray & Davison ceased trading. I came across a reference on All Hallows Twickenham website which states the cleaned their organ in 1976, although NPOR suggests this date was 1967. Is this just a slip one way or the other. Any further information gratefully received! Thanks. Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Maslen Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I worked for Gray and Davison until 1968, then for HNB. I believe they went into liquidation a couple of years later. Kingsgate Davidson were, as already said, unconnected. There was a Mr. Davidson, but Kingsgate was derived from their location, nr. Kings Cross station. A fellow employee of HNB, formerly of KD, told me that if they had an unwelcome 'phone caller, they were put through to 'Mr. Kingsgate' - ie, whoever was free to talk at the time. Hmm.
