The crossroads on the A1 at Colsterworth (which later became a roundabout) became a hub of service station activity, most of which fell under the control of Granada via Little Chef.

When the roundabout was removed, the signposts for Jubilee Garage were taken down. Officially, the signposts now direct you past it, to the main Colsterworth site. However, the entrance to the Jubilee Garage is so obvious that most people wouldn't notice the difference.
