Keene’s Automobile Works in Flanders Road, c. 1903. Mr L.P. Keene had earlier set up his works in a yard behind the Stores in Bath Road. He claimed it was the best repairing works in London with accommodation for 250 cars. He developed a fourteen-horsepower steam car called the ’Keenelet’, but it did not catch on and the company failed in 1904. In 1906 the firm of H.J. Mulliner, coachbuilders, took over the premises, which by then included workshops and offices in the three-storey Stores building. Mulliners made high-quality coachwork for firms such as Rolls-Royce and Bentley. It merged with Park Ward and moved to Willesden in 1961. A large red-brick office block, appropriately named Mulliner House, now occupies the site of the automobile works.
