Services based on pubs
Many official A-road services are positioned where they are thanks to a historic facility such as a pub or an inn, or a very early truckstop or café.
Below is a list of all the services where a pub has played an important part in its history, regardless of whether it's still there or not. Each one has its history explained on its own page, but generally they have all either attracted more facilities to the area, or been positioned at an important junction which is still important today.
