Gravesend

The cheapest unleaded in town currently starts near 140p per litre. A few outlying forecourts price well above the typical local level, so the average is a better guide here than the extremes.

Supermarket forecourts from Asda and Morrisons usually anchor the bottom of the local range. 7 of the 23 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 Costco around West Thurrock Way. Forecourts on Thames Way and Thurrock Park Way carry much of the passing trade, and their prices often move first.

On average, unleaded here runs a little under the wider South East England figure. Diesel averages around 163p per litre across the stations we track in Gravesend.

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 Gravesend is not fixed; the low spot moves between forecourts through the week, so the current ordering matters more than habit.
