Jubilee Filling Station

I stumbled across this quite by chance when going to collect a vintage livestock trailer from a nearby village. The fact that this quaint, very early, petrol filling station has survived at all is quite amazing. It'd be nice to think that it might get refurbished one day, as survivors this early (believed built in 1935) must be verrry thin on the ground nowadays. Does anyone know if there are plans afoot to restore this small but important survivor from the earliest days of motoring???

Update 2007: News filtered through early in 2007 that some low-life %^^**!£$ burnt down this historic building. The pumps survive, at least at the time of writing, but how long before modern flat-pack houses are built over this site? photos appear in their local newspaper. What a real shame.
