Fuel of good intentions: Locals to benefit from new community pumps

Norman Purves fills up the tanks of his vintage Austin in Newcastleton in the Scottish Borders as fuel pumps returned to the village after a ten-year absence.

The last pumps stopped flowing a decade ago, forcing residents to take at 40-mile round trip to either Hawick or Longtown to fill up their tanks.

The move is part of a community action project that will raise fund for local causes.
