A PETROL station in a Herefordshire town has been given a major makeover.

The Morrisons garage in Station Street, Ross-on-Wye, has been acquired by Motor Fuel Group (MFG), with a new sign above the shop.

The Morrisons Daily brand is now above the door, with the supermarket giant continuing to provide food and groceries in the shop, with the forecourt being run by MFG.

The shop is open from 5.30am to 11pm every day, with a new off-licence selling alcohol.
