About this station

It appears in DVSA's Active MOT test stations dataset dated 26 February 2026 under site number 80101, and is authorised for 2 of the six MOT test classes: motorcycles of any engine size (Class 1 and 2).

Motorcycle testing is the distinguishing authorisation here: 8 of the 67 stations listed in Bath and North East Somerset hold Class 1 or 2, and 15 of the 111 stations within 10 miles of this one do. It does not test Class 4 cars and light vans, so it is a specialist station rather than a general MOT garage; the 64 Class 4 stations in Bath and North East Somerset are listed on the district page.
