Trafford were motorcycles produced from circa 1919 to 1922.

After the end of the First World War, there was boom in personal transport. This was one of the many firms who set up manufacture and used the 269cc Villiers engine.

In the early post-war years supplies of proprietary parts were hard to find, and when the boom burst most small firms left the market - with the majority returning to their previous garage life.
