taken 13 years ago, near to Leigh Woods, North Somerset, England

Former Mercedes-Benz garage, Winterstoke Road
Former Mercedes-Benz garage, Winterstoke Road
A view of the well-known local landmark, formerly Cruickshanks Mercedes garage, on Winterstoke Road, Ashton. It has stood by the busy Cumberland Basin for many years, greeting travellers with its Art Deco design. Sadly, its future seems destined for a comprehensive redevelopment, as permission has been given to turn it into small business storage units and residential properties. The distinctive frontage and clock tower will be retained but complemented by the use of multicoloured polycarbonate panels.

See ST5671 : Old Mercedes showrooms, Winterstoke Room, ST5671 : No deals and ST5671 : The old Cruickshanks garages for more views of the state of limbo.
