Caversham

At the bottom of the local market, unleaded starts around 149p per litre right now. A few outlying forecourts price well above the typical local level, so the average is a better guide here than the extremes.

The supermarket sites, including Asda and Tesco, tend to set the floor for prices here. Supermarkets account for 5 of the 36 stations here, with branded and independent sites making up the remainder.

The low end of the market has recently been held by Costco. Forecourts on School Road and Chalfont Way carry much of the passing trade, and their prices often move first.

Average unleaded here tracks the wider South East England figure closely. Diesel averages around 175p per litre across the stations listed for Caversham.
