Description
This horse-drawn Purley type float worked several areas of London before ending its working life in around 1957 at the Fulham Depot of United Dairies, but continued to be used as a show vehicle until the mid 1960s. It was purchased at auction by the Science Museum in 1979 and the following year was restored by the Electric Vehicle Maintenance Department of United Dairies at Harlesden, London.
