Trivia and History
A service area was first proposed here in 1990; it would have been a hotel with a leisure area adjoined to a "service area".
In 1996 Whitbread planned the site that was eventually built, although they named Esso as their proposed petrol partner. The restaurant opened as a Brewsters, and the forecourt opened as a Texaco.
In 2007 the shop was converted from Texaco's Star Market to Somerfield. This later became Co-op Food.
