Coaches and buses crowd the disused forecourt and pump area. The sign advertises unleaded fuel at 99.9 pence per litre, so that dates the closure of this facility. One small bus still bears its destination or route sign; 'Chepstow via Monmouth / Trellech' which is coincidentally my old stomping ground. An interesting and thought provoking collection.
