Maple Leaf Garage

Maple Leaf Garage has a history that stretches right back to 1902, and the very dawn of the Motor Car itself. Notable proprietors include one Harold Berwick, who was a renowned Humber Works Motorcyclist & Test Rider with extensive Isle of Man TT success. In 1914, Harold enlisted into the Royal Air Corps, serving at Ypres and Somme in the Legendary 20 Squadron - noted as being the most highly decorated Squadron of the Great War with Baron Von Richthofen (The Red Baron) it's most notable adversary. Harold later found himself a founder member of the RAF following its formation in 1918. After his de-mob he opened a Motorcycle Showroom on these premises.

Later, in 1946, Maple Leaf Garage was given it's name by Canadian Airman David More. Having flown Wellington Bombers out of Silverstone Airfield during the latter part of the war, Mr More settled here in Daventry and built the current buildings in which we have operated ever since. Incidentally, Mr More was also the founding President of Daventry Rotary Club.
