Details
This was the successor firm (from 1890) to J H Trevithick, formerly part of the Harvey’s
group, and William Hosken and Sons of Loggans’ Mill. Loggans Mill was their main base
in Hayle. First recorded in 1688, it was rebuilt along modern lines following a fire in 1852,
and again reorganised in 1884. HTP had other premises around Hayle, and in 1913 owned
a large farm, 50 horses, 3 traction engines, lorries and steamers, were still bringing wheat to
Copperhouse wharf for the mills, and were also the largest wholesale grocers west of
Bristol. HTP removed all their operations from Hayle in about 1930.
