TQ2982 : Former petrol station, Hampstead Road

taken 9 years ago, near to Camden Town, Camden, England

Former petrol station, Hampstead Road
Much is made of the number of pubs that close down, but a similar cull seems to be taking place almost unnoticed when it comes to petrol stations. Anyone needing to fill up a vehicle in central London faces an uphill struggle: particularly difficult when one needs to return a hire car or van with the tank full. This awkward little triangular site hosted a very useful BP station until a couple of years ago; I suspect it may be a casualty of the HS2 railway works shortly to affect this area.
