The town where fuel prices are way higher and been branded a 'disgrace'

Residents from a town in north Wales have shared their frustration over fuel prices in their local areal, with diesel costing 12p a litre more than some other places nearby. According to North Wales Live, two filling stations in the Denbighshire town of Denbigh, which are Morrisons in the upper part of the town and Texaco on Rhyl Road, are both currently charing £1.72 a litre for diesel while unleaded costs £1.52.

It is a stark contrast to nearby Rhydymwyn Service Station on Denbigh Road, which is currently charging £1.58 for diesel. Five miles away, Applegreen Service Station near the A55 in St Asaph is charging 5p a litre less than its Denbigh counterparts.

As a result, many residents of Denbigh have complained about the situation, with several saying they regularly travel away from the town to fill up. One local councillor called the price of fuel in Denbigh "a disgrace".
