Got stuck here for hours at 5pm in the winter (in the dark) heading south. Seemed to be a lot of local traffic, but too close to london for many long-distance travellers to be stopping. Might be better in the light, but ultimately fairly quiet and unpromising.―Anonymous

Direction Cambridge, got ride in 5 mins. There's a bus stop, so a carr which has stopped doesn't block the road―Anonymous

Motorway service station, not possible to walk to/from.Not too trafficed on a Sunday morning in January 2023. Extremely nice staff at the café gave me a coffee for free and said I could just go inside if I needed to warm up.
Unfortunately Netflix launched a documentary about a hitchhiker and axmurderer right before I went on a hitchhiking trip, so a lot of people in England said they were to scared to pick me up.
Two middle-aged women wasn't going my direction but bought me a sandwich.
Eventually some guys from Romania going to Leeds picked me up and dropped me off at the station outside Newark-On-Trent.
Unfortunately neither of us was completely familiar with the left driving and I was headed towards Lincoln, so I ended up in an inconvenient spot and ended up finding a car into Newark-On-Trent from there, but that was mainly my fault.

Bus stop - sign probably necessary. Possibility for the cars to stop without problems. I got a ride out to the first service station heading north fairly quick in January 2023. The motorway ahead goes both way so probably possible to get south as well.―V
