If you were in Lanarkshire you would have known the name of County Garage (Lanark) Ltd at Hyndford Road, Lanark.
The company started business in 1928 and continued until 1975. By 1934 it was a Fordson dealer, retraining that agency into the 1970s. In 1955 it was also an agent for David Brown tractors.
In the mid 1960s if you were looking for implements, you could have purchased from County Garage a selection from Ransomes, Lister, Bamford, Howard, Jones, Allis Chalmers, Lundell and Wallace.
There are still a few Fordson tractors around the vintage rally circuit that bear the County Garage name. keep an eye out for them!
The photos were taken at the Highland Folk Museum rally, May 2014.
