National - Fenn Green Filling Station and Cafe, Alveley, Bridgnorth, Worcestershire WV15 6JA circa 1960
This is a lovely image of the cafe and petrol station that used to be here on the A442. Pretty much all that remains in the present day is the lovely round building, nearly all other traces of the facilities once here gone for some time. I say nearly as the pump island is actually still there but it's been turned into a raised bed. The earliest Streetview from 2009 shows it really clearly. Then, it looked more like an old pump island taken over by nature and certainly less well organised. I have no idea when petrol sales ended here but I'm guessing it would have been in the last century, probably the 1990s.
The wonderful looking premises beyond to the right did not remain as they appear here, now rather modified and looking less Art Deco than they did.
