Aust, nr Severn Bridge Services

Site where the car of Manic Street Preacher guitarist Richey Edwards was discovered in January 1995. It was parked at the service station leading to speculation of his suicide.

Richey James' silver L Reg Vauxhall Cavalier was found abandoned at the Severn View service station on Friday, February 17th. At 3am, it is a cold, grim place. It is a monotonous motorway drive from London to Aust. A pretty sane driver can make the journey in 2 hours. At this time of the night it is utterly deserted. A few drivers are asleep in their cars; cheapskate sales reps claiming for the Travel Lodge on expenses and pocketing the cash.
