Can't help you I'm afraid but I will be interested to hear any info that follows. The garage was/is in Spencer St, where I grew up. The legend that was Jim 'The Liar' Barrett occupied the premises originally. Jim has been celebrated on these pages before. Smyths ran a vey successful business and were good employers. Nacie Elliott used to man the pumps and was always good company if you visited his booth. 6 shillings and 8 pence a gallon I remember was the price for a while.
