Droylsden

The cheapest unleaded in town currently starts near 142p per litre. 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 Tesco and Morrisons, tend to set the floor for prices here. Supermarkets account for 15 of the 81 stations here, with branded and independent sites making up the remainder.

The low end of the market has recently been held by Costco around The Broadway. Forecourts on Ashton New Road and Princess Road carry much of the passing trade, and their prices often move first.

The town's unleaded average sits slightly below the North West England norm at the moment. For diesel, expect an average of roughly 170p 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. The cheapest station in Droylsden is not fixed; the low spot moves between forecourts through the week, so the current ordering matters more than habit.
