Trivia and History
The junction here mainly serves the services and the Bourne End industrial estate.
The site was first developed in 1992 by Margram who proposed a service area, hotel, restaurant and parking areas. This was granted planning permission in March 1993. The service area opened with a Travel Inn hotel and a BP filling station but no restaurant.
In 1999, plans for a McDonald's restaurant were proposed but were later withdrawn in early 2000. Margram were later granted planning permission in summer 2002 to build the McDonald's restaurant.
In 2001, Margram planned to add a second hotel to the site. Planning permission was granted for this in 2005 however it was never built.
During the 2000s, the site was rebranded to Total with a Bonjour store and also featured Café Nescafe for a time.
In 2012, the filling station was purchased by Shell and rebranded.
The McDonald's restaurant was extended in 2018.
A Little Chef restaurant was positioned nearby in Bourne End village, which opened in around 1975 and closed in 1995, after the bypass opened. Margram were granted planning permission to add a Little Chef to the facilities here in summer 2000 but upon resubmitting amended plans in 2002 it was refused on road safety grounds. Margram re-submitted the 2002 plans in 2007 and plans were again refused on the basis that the Little Chef wasn't needed. The building is now home to Complete Outdoors.
