Trivia and History
When the A689 was realigned to accommodate the new A1(M) in the late 1960s, a garage was built here.
The site was operated by Philip Wilks Ltd under the BP brand, and they made several attempts to expand the facilities available here. Plans to re-build the site and add a hotel in 1988, again in 1991, and a restaurant in 1992 and 1996 were all proposed but never built.
During the late 1990s, the sales building was extended to gain its own cafĂŠ. This later became the UK's first Bake & Bite bakery.
Further plans for additional facilities continued into the new millennium with a diner being refused planning permission in 2004. A major site redevelopment in 2009 would have seen the sales building and canopy replaced whilst the land to the east of the forecourt would have been developed into a coffee shop and 'park and share' site. These plans were later amended in 2010 to add a 90-bed hotel to the far east of the proposed site, but the overall plans were later withdrawn and never built. Part of the land was later used to build a veterinary hospital in the mid-2010s.
The forecourt went onto be branded Harvest Energy in the early to mid-2010s, when the site also gained a Mace store. The site later rebranded to JET.
KSC Worldwide Ltd handed over the filling station to Certas Energy on 4 February 2021, following the sale of their forecourts. Following the takeover, the site was rebranded to Gulf in March 2021, with the store rebranding to SPAR.
Certas Energy are set to reconfigure the HGV pumps and lanes in late 2024 to improve access to the site for large vehicles. They also intend to refurbish the shop facilities, removing the old Mace branding which is still prominently placed across the site.
