The engraved stone on the side of the forecourt shop, showing James Graven's input in the site.
James Graven & Sons, who also owned the filling station at Ely services at the time, submitted plans in 2008 for a BP filling station to be built at the north-east of the roundabout here. Permission was granted in March 2009, with the filling station opening in February 2011 with a SPAR store.
James Graven & Sons sold the business onto BP Express in 2015, who removed the SPAR store and introduced a M&S Simply Food store with Wild Bean Café offering to the site. Evidence of their previous ownership can still be seen on a large engraved stone on the side of the sales building.
The site was subject to a break-in on 15 December 2017, which saw the sales building damaged.
A BP Pulse charger was added to the forecourt in late 2023.
A new housing estate is being built which will make use of the forecourt's entrance, changing the road layout and traffic flow.
