Exley were founded in 1923, and initially made gauge 0 and gauge 1 locomotives that ran under clockwork, steam, and electrical power.

Exley were closely associated with Mills Bros., and supplied gauge 0 and 00-gauge coaches to Bassett-Lowke.

In 1962 the factory was destroyed by fire, and Edward Exley took over Milbro.

Edward Exley Ltd ceased trading in 1995, and the brand was revived as a specialist manufacturer in the late 1990's, and again in 2004.
