Closed Petrol Station on the A6

Not only the petrol station, but the A6 itself was strangely quiet on this fine summer afternoon.

The road was closed due to a fatal accident somewhere to the north.

A6 Road

The A6 is one of the main historic north south roads in England. At 299 miles long it is the fourth longest road in the country. It currently runs from Luton in Bedfordshire to Carlisle in Cumbria, although it formerly started at a junction with the A1 at Barnet.
