Barford & Perkins were road roller and agricultural machinery manufacturers in Peterborough, England.
[4] Barford & Perkins relocated from Peterborough at the end of the 1920s into part of the Aveling & Porter works in Rochester.
[5] At the instigation of chairman Edward Barford, Barford & Perkins's profitable business was bought from the AGE receiver along with Aveling & Porter with the support of Ruston & Hornsby, Ransomes, Sims & Jefferies and RA Lister & Company.
[5][6] Barford & Perkins and Aveling & Porter were combined in 1933 and moved to Grantham in 1934 and Aveling & Porter was renamed Aveling-Barford that same year.
