Monday 4 March 2013 (1607) - The garage premises of Robinson’s of Kimbolton. In 1927 Stanley Robinson started a car and cycle repair business in Kimbolton and was operating a coach and taxi prior to 1939. In this now changed view the company once ran a filling station in addition to carrying out car servicing and MOT testing together with a convenience store. The filling station has now gone and the convenience store (then named the ‘Roboshop’) upgraded to a Budgens mini-store. One of their very smartly presented coaches K579 JNV, a Van Hool Alizée bodied Volvo B10M which was new to Richmond’s of Barley, is seen on the forecourt.
