E10 (Unleaded) price history at this station
Every price change recorded here since we began watching this forecourt on 10 Aug.
The shaded band is a period with no recorded price. The line stops rather than crossing it, because we did not observe what the price did. 17 Sept–23 Sept is archived but has not been replayed into the history yet.

Where this comes from
Retailers are required to publish a price change within 30 minutes under the UK Government’s statutory price reporting scheme. We record every change as it is reported and never estimate a missing one — where we have no price, the page says so.
