Team Spirit - RJ Scarlett, The Street, Westleton, Suffolk 6
Things change slowly in deepest Suffolk. As a result, the garage here looks largely like it did ninety years ago! The building was expanded at some point, ownership changed, petrol brands came and went, but the overall scene remained unchanged. Here in 2019 on the village green there was a sort of bee sculpture to add a different point of interest.
For quite some time this has been the garage of RJ Scarlett and as can be seen, the last brand of petrol sold from here was Team Spirit, a sign is still on the building indicating as such, but in truth the garage has been independent for quite some time now, maybe as along as twenty five years. The price board is also way way out of date.
Below an image of the garage as it was in the mid 1930s for comparison.
