Thornton Heath

Unleaded currently varies by roughly 10p per litre between the cheapest and dearest forecourts, which is enough to notice on a full tank. Supermarket forecourts from Sainsburys and Tesco usually anchor the bottom of the local range.

8 of the 76 local forecourts are supermarket-run, and the rest split between branded and independent operators. The low end of the market has recently been held by Asda around Marlow Way.

Several of the busier sites sit along Marlow Way and Anerley Road, so you can check them against each other without leaving your usual route. Unleaded prices around Thornton Heath sit broadly in line with the rest of Greater London.

For diesel, expect an average of roughly 164p per litre locally. The comparison covers stations up to roughly 8 km out, which keeps out-of-town supermarkets and bypass sites in the same view as the town centre.

If you drive through Thornton Heath regularly, note that the price ordering below changes often enough that last month's cheapest stop may not be this week's. Use the live table for the exact prices at each site, or set an alert if you would rather be told when your usual stations drop.
