EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Keele Services, located on the M6 Motorway in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire. The image showcases a mesmerizing view looking southeast across the service area towards Structure 348 on the Birmingham to Preston Motorway (M6). Designed by renowned architect Terence Verity and opened in 1963 by Motorway Services Limited (Fortes), Keele Services stands as a testament to mid-century construction and travel culture. Its significance lies not only in its architectural beauty but also in its historical importance within the motoring industry. The photograph transports us back to the vibrant 1960s, when road trips were an adventure filled with excitement and exploration. It evokes memories of families stopping at service stations along their journey, taking breaks from long drives to refuel both their vehicles and themselves. Keele Services served as a haven for weary travelers seeking respite from their travels. With its modern amenities and welcoming atmosphere, it became more than just a pit stop – it was a destination within itself. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured by Historic England Archive photographer Joh, we are reminded of how far we've come since those early days of motorway travel. This print serves as a visual time capsule that allows us to appreciate both our past heritage and our present progress in transportation infrastructure.
