Anglo - Empire Garage, Halstead, Essex 1988 2
A better focused image of this garage turned up - the less good one is below - still got chosen for Explore and multiple favourites despite in my opinion not being a very good photo - let's see how this one goes! These days sadly just a hand car wash site and has been for many years - not really a surprise that the garage didn't last, it's on a minor route into Halstead and since the turn of the century probably saw a large fall in passing trade. The big Esso not far from here also probably didn't help. The Empire Cinema behind is still going strong at least. www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.9455474,0.6319849,3a,37.5y,302....
