Former bus station and garage, Stratford-upon-Avon - 27 Feb 2014
Thursday 27 February 2014 (1127) - This building was once the ‘Stratford Blue ’(Stratford-upon-Avon Blue Motors Limited) bus garage, the rearward half (with darker and original asbestos roof) is occupied by the local branch of the ‘Kwik Fit’ tyre company. The forward half (with the newer lighter coloured roof) is currently vacant since ‘Much ado about toys’ ceased trading in October 2013. I imagine the buses entered the garage through what is the Kwik Fit doorway and left the garage by the front door leading on to Bridgefoot. (P.S. Kwik Fit later expanded to also occupy what had been the toy shop area).
‘Stratford Blue’ was one of the smaller British Electric Traction Group bus companies owned by, but operated separately from, what was one of the largest British bus companies - ‘Midland Red’ (BMMO). ‘Stratford Blue’ operated around 40 vehicles and, in addition to the Stratford garage had a smaller one in Kineton. We stayed at the Premier Inn, the fawn coloured building beyond and parallel to the old garage. Our room window was the sixth from the left.
