Founded in 1926 and moved to new premises in Aston in 1936.
Although the oldest British cycle manufacturer, sadly Pashley moved to Stratford-upon-Avon in the 1960s. Lots of info about the company at https://www.pashley.co.uk/pages/our-heritage
I had a bright yellow Pashley tricycle in the 1980's. It was extremely heavy and hard to ride uphill. My main problem was the camber on the road and I topped over a couple of times - not good when you have a child on the back!
