« on: Sunday 11 February 07 10:57 GMT (UK) »

It's something to do with the building trade.

Put an 'apostrophe s'  in the occupation - I think it should read 'builder's carter' so he was in the transport line rather than the building trade.
All inhabitants of Axbridge, Somerset.

There was me thinking he carted the builders rubble away, when he carted builders to and from work.  Thanks GAJ
