Synopsis

Small garages and service stations are a vital – but fast disappearing – part of Britain’s automotive landscape. Often independently owned and sited in idiosyncratic buildings, they are rightfully celebrated and sensitively documented in this essential book.

You might use a local garage to change a tyre or replace your exhaust, but when was the last time you pulled over and took a good look at the building itself?

In the spirit of Ed Ruscha’s Twentysix Gasoline Stations (1963), photographer Philip Bu
