Previously Farrar, Whitley and Co.

1899 William Farrar joins Smithson Young to form a new company and after taking temporary premises in Woodhouse Lane, Leeds, Farrar and Young moved to their new purpose-built factory in Elder Road, Bramley in May 1900.[1]

The "Paragon Engineering Works" of the company was positioned close to both the Haley and Whitley factories, and workers were probably pirated from these firms to staff the new plant.[2]
