Former Petrol Station - Jack Bygraves, London Rd, Biggleswade, Bedfordshire.
It appears fuel has not been sold here for quite a long time, I did ask a chap here if he knew when petrol sales finished, his reply was sometime in the 1980's.
Looking at the single pump on the forecourt and it's display I wasn't so sure but looking at the earliest street view image (2008), the top of a much older, possible cabinet pump can be seen so this could be a strong possibility, this pump was replaced with the current one by 2009
Snippets of history are in the photos of Chris Barker and Nivek.Old.Gold, these state that this garage has traded under the name Jack Bygraves since 1953 and was a former Ford dealer.
The road was formerly also a stretch of the A1.
I'll add the photos from Chris Barker & Nivek.Old.Gold in the comments below.
2008 Google street view, the pump can be seen by the car with the open door
