Cleveland - Guildford Road, Lightwater, Surrey 1950's
There are actually two petrol stations in this photo - further down the road on the other side are a couple of pumps outside another shop - might be selling Esso but hard to tell. There is a BP petrol station on Guildford Road, Lightwater today but I'm pretty sure it isn't the modern equivalent of either of these sites. There is however another garage a bit further along which I think is the same place as this site on the left. The timber frame house in the distance in the photo is matched by a similar property further along the road in the Streetview here although it is these days obscured by newer housing and trees. www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.3519077,-0.6657197,3a,75y,292.8...
