The Marches gap....any other English counties with no rapid chargers?

Was just musing on our lack of rapid chargers. Shropshire as the biggest (inland) English county has none. Our neighbouring county of Hereford has none. Mid and North Wales have none. And Cheshire to the North from what I can tell have none....

Off the top of my head think every other English county has at least one at a dealer if not on the motorway....possibly the only exception being Cumbria...

A few rapid chargers sprinkled along the route and at the destination itself would make it only a mild inconvenience :p

Fair price is you want ab 'entry level' EV?
