The Alesbury Brothers grew from an Edenderry timber, furniture and coachworks business into one of Ireland's earliest automobile builders. Their four-seat car appeared at the 1907 Dublin Motor Show with body and running structure made from Irish wood, solid tyres and an imported 8/10 hp Stevens-Duryea two-cylinder engine and gearbox. Only nine examples are reported to have been completed during 1907–1908. The wider family business survived later fires and continued trading, but no further Alesbury automobile model followed.
