Trivia and History
The A2 Jubilee Way out of Dover opened in 1977, and it left a narrow piece of land between the new road and the school. Heron build a petrol station in the middle of this land, which opened in May 1989 with a Heron-branded forecourt which was known locally as Guston Court Farm Service Station. At this stage, it was only accessible from the A2 northbound.
The filling station had been handed over to Elf by 1992. There were soon plans to attach a restaurant to the forecourt, with one of those being from Margram, who proposed a 38-bed hotel and 88-seater restaurant.
Whitbread opened the Duke of York branch of Brewers Fayre here on 26 March 1996, named after the neighbouring Duke of York Military School. Plans for a hotel continued, with Whitbread eventually opening a 40-bed Travel Inn to the north of the filling station in July 1998. Due to the location of the hotel, it is accessed via a long driveway which runs alongside the filling station. This has effectively filled all the land available.
Forecourt Expansion
The forecourt was branded Total by the early 2000s. The site was then purchased by Shell in 2012 who refurbished the site with new pumps and tanks as well as rebranding the shop to their own brand Select and removing the jet wash.
The forecourt shop was refurbished again in early 2018, gaining Budgens branding in the process.
The car wash was removed in 2020 to make way for two Shell Recharge electric vehicle charging points. These went live in summer 2022 after power supply issues.
