Default Hardy repairs

There used to be a guy in Barnard Castle who specialised in repairs to Hardy reels. I've lost his contact details. Can someone PM them to me, please?

Regrettably David Deacon was not the man, but he reminded me that Chris Henshaw was the one I was looking for but that ill-health had caused him to retire. Thanks for the contact and if anyone else knows of a quality reel repair man, I would be grateful for a PM.

Recommended. He sorted me out on some obscure reels I own with parts that had worn out. Job done and back to me within 10 days.
