The cheapest places to buy petrol across Shropshire as prices rise amid war in the Middle East
Petrol prices across the UK have been rising in recent days amid the unrest in the Middle East with price rises affecting Shropshire.
With conflict continuing in the Middle East in the wake of America and Israel's attack on Iran, there has been an inevitable impact on petrol prices.
Not only have prices risen but 'panic buying' has also caused shortages at some petrol stations in Shropshire.
One of the cheapest places to fill up with unleaded is currently at the Prees Heath Esso garage near Whitchurch, with petrol costing just 131.9p per litre according to the petrolprices.com website.
That price is up significantly on earlier this week when drivers were paying 125.9p per litre to fill up.
Prices vary significantly across the county with residents in the North of Shropshire benefitting from the county's cheapest prices at the moment.
Shrewsbury residents face a notable increase in prices compared to those filling up in North Shropshire, while Telford and Bridgnorth are also seeing higher prices.
For diesel the current cheapest price is in Oswestry at Morrisons on Shrewsbury Road where drivers will be paying 145.9p per litre.
