Living van for sale

[Clayton10ton]

My father bought this living van in 1970 from Tilbury Plant Hire of Twyford Berkshire when it was being used for a building labourer to live in at the side of the road in Bracknell. It was possibly built by John Atlean & Sons of Wokingham in the 1920's. The wheels are reputedly from a London bus from the 1800's.

Was used with a Clayton roller in the early 80's and used for shows in the Wokingham area.

It underwent restoration in 1980 and has been painted several times since. It would now benefit from another re-paint with some odd bits of wood being replaced, but the main structure is solid and the underside is good. It's had very little use and been used for storage for the last couple of decades. The stove needs some attention before being used. The window on the off-side is not meant to open, whilst the nearside double window has one half which slides open.

13'8" long without the rear hitch, 7'2" wide.

House move and down-size forces sale. Currently located in Arborfield, Berkshire. Please call Steve on 07746 805807 or email sl-bennett@virginmedia.com for photos. £9,500.

Now reduced to £8995 and offers invited. A little more work is required than first thought as a couple of the ends of the joists under the front step need replacing/splicing whilst the rest of the chassis and floor are in great condition. I have also been informed it is definitely a John Allen living van of late 20's to early 30's vintage.
