1950s

Poole Waterfield Limited can trace its origins back to the 1950s.

R T Poole & Co was founded in the early 1950s and occupied offices at 186 Wolverhampton Street, Dudley.

The practice shared the building with an insurance broker and the two worked together on a regular basis. The business relationships formed at this time remain to this day.

In the late 1950s John Waterfield joined R T Poole and Co. At his previous employers, where he was an Articled Clerk,  he recalled visiting clients on his bike to deliver accounts in and around Dudley.
