Derelict Petrol Station - Nr Newtown (Wales)
I passed this place on the A489 loads of times during the summer and with our esteemed photo competition in mind thought I would investigate. Sadly I was chased off after a few minutes by a burly and extraordinarily hairy Welsh farmer type dude who seemed to hate motorcyclists. Sorry, no internal pics.
I then realised I had missed the cut-off date for entry to the comp..........doh       ched

Daft as it sounds, I'm sure I've seen this. I used to head down to Machynlleth this way and onto Tywyn to the caravan!
Your pic is doing very well...I wouldn't worry about entering another!

Re: Derelict Petrol Station - Nr Newtown (Wales)
Ahhh...I know this place.
Many years ago (40+) we pulled in here in the Zephyr and my dad, not intending to be patronising said to the the attendant.... " Bore da, four gallons please" in a really bad welsh accent. Still makes me laugh. Hawk
