Trivia and History
The Adderstone Garage was positioned in the corner of the Great North Road and the B1341. When the road was straightened and moved to the west of the site in the late 1970s, the facilities gained room to expand.
Space was left between the new A1 and Adderstone Garage in case the road needed to be upgraded to dual carriageway. New Esso-branded pumps and a workshop/toilet building were provided.
In 1984, J.W. Davidson & Sons converted the old garage building into a retail shop and the 'Eat Again' transport café. They also looked at using land at the back of the site for a camping and caravan site.
Plans were put forward for a 20-bed hotel, being branded as the Purdy Travel Lodge, as well as a 20-seater restaurant and 96-seater transport café in 1990. The new facilities opened in 1993, with the café relocating to the new hotel building and rebranding as Café One and the filling station shop taking over the entire former workshop building.
The filling station went onto trade under the Q8 brand in the 1990s, with the branding changed to Gulf in around 2008. In 2019, the site was rebranded to Harvest Energy and the attached store changed from Mace to KeyStore More.
