Market Street
Market Street looking north towards Trinity Quay and Union Street, showing coal being unloaded at Aberdeen Harbour.

A truck belonging to William Wisely & Sons can be seen heading south. This company were contractors and warehousemen and were based at 31-35 Virginia Street and 60 Frederick Street.

Norman Wisely, author of a booklet about William Wisely & Sons called Memories: recollections of haulage and farming around Aberdeen from the early 1930s to the mid 1950s (2002), has been in touch to inform us that the lorry is a Leyland Beaver and that it was purchased new by the firm in 1933. The vehicle registration number is RG 3860.

This photograph likely dates from the 1930s or 40s.
