This photo, taken in Ashby Road, shows the extension to this garage which took place during the 1930s enabling it to hold 75 vehicles. By the time this Garage closed in March 2011, this was down to 33, both single (17) and double deck (16) vehicles. With this Garage now for sale, the writing would appear to be on the wall for this site.
