Property consultancy Rapleys LLP is predicting more former forecourt sites will be reopened after it secured the sale of a site that was closed several years ago. The former Shell site on the High Street in Coleshill, West Midlands, had been vacant for more than four years, but when Rapleys LLP put it on the market there were immediately a number of interested parties. All were looking to bring the site back into operation as a petrol filling station and following a tight bidding process, a deal was agreed with Certas Energy.
