Murco - Long Ash Service Station, Nr Frampton, Dorset DTY2 9NW 5
This was a Texaco site back in the early Streetview shots. I have photographed it before in 2018 but those photos weren't satisfactory so here are better ones!
I found an interesting webpage that shows the garage was Corralls branded in the late 1980s. There are a series of photos showing the development of the site back then, installation of new tanks, new large car repair building and so on - see here

Here's the Streetview when Texaco.

Edit Update:- Just found out that this garage was once Shell branded in the 1960s and old photos I had of a Shell garage that was to be an unknown location has been identified as this place!
