I cannot remember exactly when Whitlock went out of business but it must have been in the late 60's to early 70's. I know the loader and backhoe side was taken over by HyMac, I had customers who had them and I used a second hand one we had taken in against a JCB, to fill the canal at the back of our Elm Road premises in Wisbech.
