I found this in the 'Kington Times' dated 29th November 1924: “HEINS & Co., Ltd. Have all that is Best in PIANOFORTES, ORGANS, GRAMOPHONES & RECORDS. Only Expert Tuners and Repairers Kept. SECOND-HAND PIANOS BOUGHT OR EXCHANGED. The Best House for the Lowest Prices. HEINS & CO., LTD. 53, Broad St., Hereford.”

A friend of mine has bought a house which has a Broadwood Grand Piano in it, original to the house I think since the early 1800s. The reverse of the lid in large gold lettering says Heins & Co. Hereford, Ross, Leominster (not necessarily in that order). I was just looking online to see if there's any available history of Heins & Co and came across this archive item.
