Wrights Dowson Group Company Information

General information

Screw Conveyor Specialist

From, Wright Bros to Wrights (Gamlingay) Ltd to Wrights Dowson Group.
The original company was formed around 1750 at the site of the current factory in Gamlingay, Bedfordshire by a pair of brothers, Edward and Albert Wright, trading as Blacksmiths and Wheelwrights.

In or around 1800 a Sawmills and Coachbuilding business was added, where trees such as Ash, Oak and Elm were purchased locally for the business, sawn as required and seasoned. On occasions Horse Chestnut was also used for coffin boards.

During the 1914-18 War the business thrived in the manufacture of wooden wheels for artillery pieces and portable fire appliances. Between the two world wars the business continued with the Coachbuilding tradition but added Agricultural Implements and Machinery, with the last two handcarts made from scratch at the Gamlingay works being sold in1946 for £185 each.

In 1950 the Company was purchased from Mr G.P. Wright and Wrights (Gamlingay) Ltd was incorporated.
