Many Graiseley vehicles were classified by their payload, which was measured in hundredweights, and this usage has been retained in the article.

Graiseley Electric Vehicles were produced by the British company Diamond Motors Ltd of Wolverhampton.

They had previously made motor cycles, but began producing battery-electric road vehicles (BERV) in the mid 1930s.

They were best known for their three-wheeled pedestrian controlled vehicles, although they also produced conventional four-wheeled milk floats, and later manufactured industrial trucks.

[1] The company moved to new premises on Upper Villiers Street, Wolverhampton, in 1935, and began producing pedestrian controlled milk trucks, which were marketed with the Graiseley marque.

[5] In 1945, Batley education committee bought a Graiseley for the delivery of cooked foods, particularly soup, pastries and puddings, to schools.

A tubular column at the front of the vehicle allowed it to be steered, and pushing it downwards applied the brakes.

A separate hand-brake was also fitted, and the single front wheel was mounted so that it could be turned through a wide angle, giving exceptional manoeuvrability.

The first is a 1950 built Model 90, originally supplied to groceries shop A.G.Braddon of Sidcup and restored in 2023 at the Black Country Living Museum in Dudley.

The works manager, Walter Grewcock, bought it and parked it in his garden, where it rested until 2001, when his son donated it to The Transport Museum, Wythall.
