A long shot!

Nostalgia----there was a transport cafe situated on the right hand side of the road at the Carlisle end in Kirkpatrick Fleming in the 1940s which was in constant use by lorry drivers ------Buck Ruxton the wife murderer called there for fuel on his way up to Beatock to get rid of his wife` remains, as a boy I remember these wagons and drawbars in a complete yellow livery carrying cattle south bound. THat cafe was turned into a CB repair shop in the 80s, can anyone say what its use is today ?
