Trivia and History

Little Chef Orsett Cock.
The Former Little Chef on the eastbound side now plays host to a couple of businesses.

In 1986 there were plans for a forecourt and restaurant on either side of the road here. A pair of Mobil forecourts opened here, named Orsett Cock.

The plans for a restaurant persisted for some time, and in 1995 an eastbound Little Chef opened which closed in 2005. A McDonald's drive thru later opened on the westbound side.

In April 2018, the southbound filling station became one of three trial sites within the UK to gain a card-only self service checkout situated within the M&S store.

In summer 2020, BP submitted a planning application to install POLAR electric vehicle chargong points on the westbound side. A decision is set to be made in late 2020.
