History

The company was formed by Thomas Birckett Shepherd back in the 1920’s starting out as a taxi business in the Grange Over Sands area. In the 1950’s Myles William Shepherd purchased our first Austin 16 hearse from a local company and later purchased a new Morris Oxford hearse built by Woodhall Nicholson.

In the 1970’s Brian Shepherd joined the business providing procession vehicles until present day. The company is currently in it’s 4th generation with the recent addition of Brian’s son, Matthew Shepherd.

Over the years a wide range of vehicle services have been provided from local Taxi, Lakeland Tours to chauffeur services across the UK.
