Chorley

The very top of the local range is set by a small number of expensive outliers, and most stations sit much closer together than the headline gap suggests. The supermarket sites, including Asda and Tesco, tend to set the floor for prices here.

6 of the 22 local forecourts are supermarket-run, and the rest split between branded and independent operators. Forecourts on Sheephill Lane and Moor Road carry much of the passing trade, and their prices often move first.

Unleaded around Chorley currently averages noticeably more than North West England as a whole, so a fill-up just outside town can pay off. Diesel averages around 177p per litre across the stations listed for Chorley.

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. Prices in Chorley can move mid-week as well as at weekends, so the ordering above is worth a glance even if you always use the same forecourt.
