The Sentinel Waggon Works had started life as Alley & MacLellan of Glasgow back in 1875, concentrating on steam vehicles.  The Scottish company acquired a  similar Shropshire  based operation in 1903, subsequently moving its steam wagon manufacturing to Shrewsbury around 1915  where it concentrated on the manufacture of steam powered lorries, steam wagons , railway locomotives and later, diesel powered lorries, buses and locomotives. The DG4 (Double geared) vehicle was introduced around 1931.  During this time Sentinel along with Foden – dominated the steam vehicle market but by 1934 Government legislation was demanding a move to lighter lorries which saw the demise of both companies. Sentinel became part of Rolls-Royce ultimately.

Tate & Lyles history begins with the founding of Henry Tate & Sons by Henry Tate in 1869. Tate was a successful sugar merchant and refiner. He built a sugar refinery in Liverpool, England, and became known for his innovative methods in sugar production and refining. In 1871, Henry Tate's company is credited with the invention of the sugar cube.

In 1921, Henry Tate & Sons merged with the Lyle family's business, Abram Lyle & Sons, which was known for its Golden Syrup product. This merger created the company Tate & Lyle, combining the strengths of both companies in sugar production and syrup manufacturing.

Our dropside is employed in transporting sugar for the company, famous for its signature Tate & Lyle sugar cubes destined for the elegant afternoon tea tables of the day.  The equally elegant gold and white printing includes the Royal Warrant ‘By Appointment’ Coat of Arms proudly printed on the cab doors.  Registered KA 1458, additional lettering includes the Tate & Lyle name printed in gold across the rear dropside panel and across the front of the cab, which also tells us the sugar refiners were based in Liverpool and London.  The cab has glass windows – unusual for the period - and the interior is black and includes a silver chimney with a gold top.

Almost perfect!
Color: Green
I'm going to be traveling for over 30 hours next week. I've had my eye on this bag for a few months and decided that it would be perfect for my bag I keep under the seat in front of me. I take as little onboard as possible. I check everything. This holds my 13" MacBook Air easily along with my makeup bag, regular purse junk with room left for a pile of snacks. It did have a strong odor when I took it out of the box but I've had it about a week and it seems to have disapated. I wish the handles were a little longer so I could throw it over my shoulder, I'm not someone who will use the strap. Straps and handles are just weird to me. There are tons of pockets though! Definitely a good purchase!

Beautiful Large Purse
Color: Light Brown
5 STARS !! Love this purse. I have had expensive name brands and this I has been my favorite. Love the size, the hardware, the long strap, stong handles, the feet on the bottom the color is beautiful. Great quality so far 6 months. Even got sprinkled on in the rain dried no spots. The large is large so if you like large bags it is it. I have always wanted a I guess you would call it a medical bag. As you can tell from this I really love the bag

Great choice
Color: Light Brown
I probably lost a good 40 bags in a house fire and am just now able to begin to replace them. I made a good choice starting with Iswee! The quality and craftsmanship is top notch! Easy to get into and find items right away! The leather is soft and sturdy and the color is great! I would have rather the hardware be done in an antique finish rather than a shiny silver but it’s okay. I’m going to enjoy carrying this bag! Thank you

YOU MUST BUY!!
Color: Green, Color: Green
Hello, This is the first ever review that I’ve ever written. I couldn’t wait for this bag to arrive, and it came today as scheduled. It IS THE MOST - ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL - as soon as I opened the packaging I could smell the leather! - the “colour” lol is RICH! I am a GREEN everything person, and this green is STUNNING! The QUALITY is great and appears to be VERY DURABLE. The inside is EXTREMELY roomy and deep, which is good for me because I’m lazy about zipping my purse up. BUT the zipper glides with ease. It’s a medium weight purse, so be aware of what you’re putting in there lol Value wise, it’s definitely worth the money and it looks MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE than it actually costs! I took the strap through and made it a shoulder strap also. I WILL definitely be buying the burgundy one next! Thank You ISWEE BOBBETTE

Great Tote Bag
Color: Navy Blue
This a really nice bag! I can't wait to go on my trip. It is just the right size, not too big, not too small. It holds a lot of things and I can reach in and see all of it. I like that it has the shoulder strap that you can either keep on or take off. The leather is so soft and looks beautiful. Seems to be really well made and I will have it for a long time and plan on using it every time we travel.
