I’ll start … one Shell in Finland



There is one same size gas station (Esso) in Sweden:

Untill recently? Is it not still there? I used to pass it on a daily basis. Only a dozen or so miles from me.

This is the smallest one I’ve seen

Never knew. Thats pretty sad actually, typical health and safety! The girl who runs the shop is lovely too, would always see her out on the pump. Antrim town itself has a lot of history and quirks.

Mainly created this thread as in Finland and in Sweden the motorcyclists exactly likes to visit and use those small historical gas stations. Not any car drivers.

We came across one of the same size last year on our annual sojourn to Wales. Will see if one of the group has a photo of it.

We have a few near us. One that I immediately thought of is in Weobley (Herefordshire). I don’t have a photo, so got this off t’interweb.

This one is supposedly the oldest operating fuel filling station in the UK - only found that out Googling for an image today! Vowchurch (Herefordshire). Image found on the internet again.

Bettyhill General Store on the NC500 has only 2 (unbranded) pumps. Forgive my Honda CB500X, I’ve sold it now!

I’m rather fond of my Honda :grinning:.

I’m fairly sure that Honda picture is a CB72-250, or a very close relation… I rebuilt one of those from a box of bits in the late 70’s.

Oops… off topic! :wink:

Nearer to home, and only 20 miles from Glasgow, this single pump village petrol station is in Gartocharn.

There’s a Bonnie wee pump near Invershiel… I don’t think it’s operational, but it’s a pretty shell obelisk next to the road. I took a photo last time I was riding up that way (too long ago :unamused:) but I can’t find the picture atm… so here’s a stocky!

Edit- found my picture… not as good as my memory had it, but not awful either…

Nice ride around Stirlingshire and Perth & Kinross today, and spotted these two small gas stations -

Muthill - small well kept village petrol station, and they have toilets, always good to know where there are toilets!

Auchterarder - the pumps are right on the pavement!

I have filled up here in the past - Achnasheen, apparently abandoned at least 10 years ago…
