Charles Roberts
Was: Roberts Cycles
89 Gloucester Road, Croydon, England CR0 2DN
Charlie Roberts left Holdsworth in the mid 1960s and some time later – around 1976 – he moved to 87 Penge Road, Anerley. Then in 1983 the last move was to the Gloucester Road address in Croydon. Charlie did work in other locations building for other shops, but his own frames in this period carried either the Sydenham or Anerley addresses.
Both Charlie’s sons, Chas and Geoff, worked from a young age in the business. Charlie senior passed away in 1979 and son Chas continued the retail business until 2015. Son Geoff has continued the Roberts brand in his frame building and repair shop HERE
