Hello everyone

I'm new to this forum and delighted to see that so many others have the same perverse interest in dereliction that I have!
I am a professional photographer and have been doing a long running project photographing old village petrol stations. Although not all are actually derelict, many of the ones included in the project are frankly just a petrol price rise away from it.
If anyone is interested you can see them on my website at

pa.photoshelter.com/c/clare

and then click on the link on the right hand side called The Last of the Village Pumps under Documentary.
I tried posting a link but it didn't work.

If anyone knows of any others in their area I'd be delighted to hear from you.
Thanks
Smilla

Here's a snazzy one I found up the A9 somewhere.
 
:lol: I'm sorry.
I don't often see old-school petrol stations man, it's not like I took a photo of an early 1980s-built BP filling station with abandoned Ginsters pasties inside.;)
I could do that if you'd prerfer.
 
fab one Lost thanks

I need to do a Scottish road trip at some point to complete the project and I'll make sure I take in the A9.
 
There is an old restored garage at Somersham (Cambs) as you leave the town on the St Ives road

Now that is derelict! That looks properly rural Bullymeister! :p
It's odd isn't it, how some people are obsessed by asylums (me:p) Some industry, (usually people that have actually worked hard) and some petrol stations!
Either way, loving the pics! :mrgreen:
 
Well Urban I went to my first Asylum yesterday and loved it. I found that pump, and others, on the way back from Talgarth Hospital.
 
Hello smilla, welcome to DP. I like your site, there are some great photos there. Here are a couple from me:
