Agricultural Chemical Specialists and Veterinary Supplies.

Mr D Pell

In 1959 David  Pell rented the old gentlemen’s waiting room of the former Thrapston Midland Road Station.

Mr F Key

He was later joined by Mr F Key and together they adapted the old station buildings into offices for their firm Messrs. Key & Pell Ltd.,  Agricultural Chemical Specialists and Veterinary Supplies.

When they moved into the building it was still being used by British Rail for Goods traffic who used the Station Office and telephone until the line closed.
