Just recently I have been provided with a small folder containg some historic documents & photos relating to the history of Torridge Vale Dairy.
I am most greatful to former dairy colleague Roy Allan for saving these documents and for kindly passing them to me for inclusion on the Blog.

These few documents are an insight into the background of Torridge Vale Dairy and, amongst them, describe how the dairy was founded and it's subsequent rapid rise to being one of the largest dairies in the country.
From the beginning, the typed date should read 1834..
