A Tribute to the late
Alwyn Isherwood
Founder of

Alwyn  Isherwood  Ltd

This Tribute will be re-written as and when sufficient information becomes available

I hope that the final 'Tribute' will bring back many happy memories, though also, perhaps a few not so happy memories.  I sincerely hope that no one is offended in any way by any part of these web pages.
Please inform me of any corrections or parts that you would like changing or deleting.
Looking forward to hearing from many past employees of Isherwood's 

Best wishes to ALL,     Melvin Ashton   17th November, 2001
