365/133: 02 July 2010: Lancaster Services

Yesterday I featured an unloved plant – today it’s another of those great unloved things – motorway services. Formerly Forton Services, but now Lancaster Services, this place features regularly in my life. Judging by the number of colleagues I bump into there, it features in their lives a lot as well.

To be honest I think you have to admire the person who was brave enough to commission this rather interesting piece of architecture simply to act as a filling station for hungry motorway drivers. Have often fancied going up to the upper level, but it doesn’t seem open to the public. So yesterday it was stinging nettles …today lets hear it for Lancaster Services:

Forton
