A PETROL station has lowered its prices once again, bringing some relief to motorists in Herefordshire.
The move comes despite high motoring costs across the county amid the war in the Middle East.
The Maple Leaf Service Station in Bromyard has reduced petrol to 145.6p per litre and diesel to 169.6p per litre, making it one of the more competitively priced petrol stations in the county.
The business said the decision was made to support the local community during what it described as challenging economic times.
