Ex One Green Route - A.G East, West End (A68), Witton Le Wear, County Durham.
Sadly there are only two street view images of this site which gives no indication as to when this site closed down and was vacated.
The earliest image (2009) shows the site in its finery, a lovely, tidy, well presented site with a nice row of Gilbarco Highline pumps, although a sign at the forecourt entrance indicates that the garage was only selling diesel, so I think no more than two pumps were in use.
Another pump appears to be situated at the edge of the forecourt, concealed within the bushes and seems to have remained unused for a considerable amount of time
The totem pole is dominated by the name of the owner with the One Green Route logo secondary to this, also the totem displays Bio Plus, which appears to be bio fuels.
The latest street view image is from August 2024, which was four months before I got my photographs of the site, this again doesn't give any indication of when the site closed but looking at the state of the place It's clearly been some time.
There is plenty of evidence showing that this had been a Burmah site, possibly the last brand before the change to One Green Route.
The pump at the edge of the forecourt, now the only one left on the site which now bears the previous brand.
This is one of several filling stations in the A68 that have closed down.
