WCF - Wellingore Garage, Cliff Road, Wellingore, Lincolnshire LN5 0HY 10

Today I've reached another little landmark as I upload the 7,000th petrol station and garage photo! As a result it needed something a little special and this place in Wellingore is certainly a special garage with its fabulous architecture. Here we see it in the present day as a WCF branded site, before this it had been a Gulf site, before that a Butler site and before that a Q8. I don't have photos of it as a Gulf but luckily both Streetview and EYBusman do, in fact the only available view on Streetview is of it as a Gulf. Going even further back in time this garage was branded RP in the 1980's - which makes sense if it then became a Q8 - I found an image of an old matchbox label indicating it was RP on a Google search - in fact it was on Ebay and for sale so I have just bought it for £1.69! Below you can see it as all those other brands except RP and here as Gulf
