Cllrs Tinsley and Gunn WORK is to begin on a new petrol station, which will act as an important gateway to a County Durham town. A date has now been set for the redevelopment of the former Park View Garage, at Low Willington. After lying derelict for many years, the former garage has been branded an eyesore by local residents. Planning permission was granted in 2017 for a convenience store and petrol filling station on the former garage site. Work was due to start construction last year after the site was cleared, but it was postponed due to Covid. The developer James Hall & Co has now announced that work is due to start in March on this vital service on the outskirts of town.
