EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Historic England Archive captures a nostalgic scene of a quaint and picturesque petrol station in Lower Eashing, Guildford, Surrey during the 1930s. The image showcases an era when road transport was on the rise, and filling stations like this one played a vital role in keeping vehicles fueled up. The focal point of the photograph is a charming car parked outside the thatched B. P. petrol station, which stands proudly along the Guildford Godalming Bypass Road. The unique thatched roof adds to its character and sets it apart from modern-day fuel stations we are accustomed to seeing.
