History

Coleman Milne was founded by Roderick Milne and John Coleman in 1953. At first they specialised in vehicle body repairs and horse boxes. They quickly found a niche in using those skills to create limousines and funeral hearses. In 1992 a management buy out resulted in becoming a trading division under the holding company name of Woodall Nicholson Limited.
