About this station

South Shropshire Motorcycles Ltd is an MOT test station at 85 Gravel Hill, Ludlow, SY8 1QU, in Shropshire (West Midlands). It appears in DVSA's Active MOT test stations dataset dated 26 February 2026 under site number S004994, 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: 32 of the 158 stations listed in Shropshire hold Class 1 or 2, and 4 of the 20 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 152 Class 4 stations in Shropshire are listed on the district page.

The nearest listed alternative is Corve Bridge Garage, 0.4 miles away (Class 4). 9 other stations sit within 5 miles and 20 within 10 miles, which makes this a moderately served area for MOT choice. The five nearest stations lie within 0.6 miles.

The DVSA statutory maximum fee applies to every class this station tests: Class 1 £29.65, Class 2 £29.65. Motorcycle tests are typically £20-29 against the £29.65 cap. Confirm the price with the station before booking; prices are not part of the DVSA register.
