Cheshire">Hooton, Cheshire</a>. It was listed on the <a href="/wiki/London_Stock_Exchange" title="London Stock Exchange">London Stock Exchange</a> until it was acquired by <a href="/wiki/Carillion" title="Carillion">Carillion</a> in 2008. </p><p>The origins of Alfred McAlpine are strongly associated with the businessman <a href="/wiki/Alfred_McAlpine_(businessman)" title="Alfred McAlpine (businessman)">Alfred McAlpine</a>, a son of 'Concrete' <a href="/wiki/Sir_Robert_McAlpine,_1st_Baronet" title="Sir Robert McAlpine, 1st Baronet">Bob McAlpine</a>, and the north western operations of <a href="/wiki/Sir_Robert_McAlpine" title="Sir Robert McAlpine">Sir Robert McAlpine</a>. These operations became legally distinct in 1940; 18 year later, the company was <a href="/wiki/Initial_public_offering" title="Initial public offering">floated</a> on the <a href="/wiki/London_Stock_Exchange" title="London Stock Exchange">London Stock Exchange</a> under the name <i>Marchwiel Holdings</i>. By this point, <a href="/wiki/Alfred_James_McAlpine" title="Alfred James McAlpine">Jimmie McAlpine</a> was the chairman of the company, a position he would hold until 1985. Prior to 1983, the company's operations were constrained by a non-compete agreement with Sir Robert McAlpine; while the geographical restriction was removed, some terms of agreement remained in effect between the two companies. </p><p>Throughout the second half of the twentieth century, Alfred McAlpine was a major road builder, being responsible for the construction of over 10% of Britain's <a href="/wiki/Motorway" class="mw-redirect" title="Motorway">motorways</a>, including the <a href="/wiki/M6_Toll" title="M6 Toll">M6 Toll</a> (as part of the CAMBBA consortium). During the 1980s, it expanded its presence in the home building sector; by the late 1990s, McAlpine was building over 4,000 houses per year. However, the company opted to sell its homebuilding operations to rival company <a href="/wiki/George_Wimpey" title="George Wimpey">George Wimpey</a> in August 2001. It also owned and operated <a href="/wiki/Penrhyn_Quarry" class="mw-redirect" title="Penrhyn Quarry">Penrhyn Quarry</a>, the country's largest <a href="/wiki/Slate" title="Slate">slate</a> works; a major accounting scandal at the company's slate subsidiary occurred during the mid 2000s. During February 2008, Alfred McAlpine was acquired by rival company <a href="/wiki/Carillion" title="Carillion">Carillion</a> in exchange for £572m, which made Carillion the biggest support services company in Britain at that time. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Alfred_McAlpine&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Alfred_McAlpine_(businessman)" title="Alfred McAlpine (businessman)">Alfred McAlpine</a> was one of the sons of 'Concrete' <a href="/wiki/Sir_Robert_McAlpine,_1st_Baronet" title="Sir Robert McAlpine, 1st Baronet">Bob McAlpine</a> and he ran the operations of <a href="/wiki/Sir_Robert_McAlpine" title="Sir Robert McAlpine">Sir Robert McAlpine</a> in the north west of England. In 1935, following the death of Sir Robert and his eldest son, Alfred ran the north west independently, although the legal separation was not completed until 1940, when Sir Alfred McAlpine & Son was formed.

There had been some limited diversification, including the purchase of <a href="/wiki/Penrhyn_Quarry" class="mw-redirect" title="Penrhyn Quarry">Penrhyn Quarry</a>, the country's largest slate works.

Acquisitions included Price Brothers in 1978, Frank Sanderson's Finlas in 1982 and Canberra in 1988. Investments had also been made in the US housing industry. By the end of the 1980s, private housebuilding was contributing the major part of the group's profits.<sup id="cite_ref-Dictionary_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Dictionary-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>During 1985, Jimmie retired, and handed over chairmanship of the company to his son Robert James "Bobby" McAlpine.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1991, Bobby brought in an outside chief executive and resigned as chairman one year later, by which time the family no longer owned a controlling shareholding in the business.
