Trivia and History

Kill services.
The unsigned, expanded eastbound services.

A filling station is available in both directions, but the eastbound side is not signposted so technically not official. This is probably because, when travelling west, it is the last service area before the M7: signs before the services used to advise traffic that no online facilities are available on the motorways.

Both forecourts were built on a single field when the N7 bypassed Kill. They were known as 'Beaufort services', sometimes Beaufort Road, and were branded Esso. The eastbound side had just four pumps and a small Esso-branded shop, while the south-westbound side had an On the Run Cafe and Costa Express machine.

They then became a pair of Topaz forecourts, each with a Re.Store shop. Topaz called them both 'Kill South'.

The westbound forecourt was sold to Maxol in 2017, who introduced franchises from Abrakebabra, O'Briens, Bagel Factory and Mace, as well as one of Ireland's only forecourts with the option to pay at the pump. They erected a large sign calling it simply 'N7 Services', occasionally referring to it as 'Beaufort Road'.

The eastbound forecourt remained with Topaz until the Circle K re-brand. Circle K opened a much larger forecourt behind the existing one on 7 December 2018. The €3.7million development included their usual shopping and catering facilities, many more pumps, and safer slip roads. They started referring to it as 'Kill North', which made more sense given that it's on the north-eastbound carriageway, though the name 'Beaufort' does still persist. The old forecourt was then demolished.

Ireland's first Krispy Kreme stand was added to Kill North in April 2021. A Supermac's store opened in late 2023. Meanwhile the westbound Maxol line-up was changed in 2023, replacing the franchises with Maxol's own brands.
