Trivia and Design

Old motorway restaurant.
The 1960s Grill & Griddle restaurant on the bridge.

See also: History:Charnock Richard

The Starbucks and Subway here are provided in lower-level extensions, beneath the bridge staircase.

Camelot Theme Park, which has been closed since 2012, is situated next to the services and its rides are visible from it, although it is not easily accessed from here. Curiously, the theme park was previously owned by Granada, as part of it's theme park division.

Charnock Richard is a classic example of an American-inspired bridge-restaurant service area; one of the oldest in the country. It was picked out of several options.
