E E Baguley Ltd was founded in 1932 of Uxbridge Street, Burton-on-Trent, to continue the work of the earlier firm Baguley Engineers Ltd in 1931. Most of the earlier output of the firm was under the Drewry name with the headquarters at River Place, London E.C.2, and the variable link with Drewry is frequently confusing, as many "Drewry of London" vehicles were actually built at Baguley’s in Burton. On 18th December 1966 E. E. Baguley and the Drewry Car Co Ltd amalgamated and the company named changed to Baguley-Drewry on the 1st June 1967
