UK - Park Farm Stables, New Street, Deddington, Oxfordshire OX15 0SS 1

I've posted an image of this garage before, but it was a more close up shot and didn't show any other details at all. Here the back end of I think a mark 4 Escort and the wing mirror of the car of the person taking the photo are seen as well as the full extent of the building.

This was a charming little garage back in the day. Two roadside pumps operated with booms set into a recess on the front of the building and the UK sign mounted above on the front of the building. The old Dunlop sign and an old Duckham's Oil display are lovely to see too. Shame really that it didn't last. It's now a dental practice and all signs it was ever a garage have gone.

Dan Lockton has an even better photo than this one it must be said but from the reverse angle - yet neither this or the other two images show that the garage was situated right next door to a small church set back from the pavement. In Dan's photo you can see the sign at the front reading Deddington Congregational Church. You can see his photo below.
