I recently visited Templars Square at Cowley to see the display of Morris cars from long ago.
It was a day full of happy memories for the workers who had helped make them at the Cowley plant.
I am sure that if Lord Nuffield (or William Morris as he was known in the earlier days) was alive, his chest would have burst with pride.
Admiration is due to the owners of these cars, which were in excellent condition, good as new.
Many thanks to Tanya Field who organises this yearly event and again allowed me to sit in my favourite car, leaving me once again with happy memories.
Best wishes to her – may she continue to put on these displays and keep in people’s minds the memory of Morris Motors and the good that was done by Lord Nuffield for Cowley and Oxford.
