Summary edit
| Description |
English: Former AJS/Stevens Works - Retreat Street Following the demise of the Wearwell Company the four Stevens brothers started manufacturing motorcycles from these modest premises on Retreat Street. To satisfy increasing demand the AJS company moved to a new 200,000 square foot works on Graiseley Hill in 1915. Financial difficulties led to the liquidation of the company in 1930 and AJS was sold to Matchless of London. Some other Stevens family businesses continued: Stevens Screw operated from these premises until 1992.
It is interesting to see an engineering company occupying the premises336341. If you look closely enough the AJS name is just visible. |
