Hi all,
I've recently had cause to pass the architecturally interesting Lancaster (Forton) services on the M6, as pictured below with its large, hexagonal tower which formerly housed a restaraunt (unfortunately no longer, due to fire safety regulations) and hexagonal OTIS elevators;

And this has got me wondering, are there any other particuarly interesting, be it buildings, history or trivia, motorway (or A road?) services in the UK that you can think of?
Mod note: I know that in some ways motorways arent entirely public transport, but they sort of are, and this seemed the most suitable area to put a question like this
Thanks,
Yew
