Derbyshire Dales District Council has issued a Temporary Stop Notice after investigating the unauthorised use of land known as Truck Stop off the A6, Darley Dale.
The site is presently being used to store metal storage containers.
The council confirmed that valid planning permission had not been applied for or approved for such a use.
A council spokesman said: “The council requested the removal of the containers. The company failed to act, and therefore the council has issued and served a Temporary Stop Notice on the land and allowed up to 56 days for the company to engage with the council to seek compliance”
One resident said it was a ‘real shame to lose an iconic kiosk’.
Another added: “It's a shame to see it go but let's face it for the last 10 years plus the site has been a mess.”
Another resident said: “Proper old school service pump. I remember going there a few times and the bloke would come out of the kiosk and ask how much, he'd fill it up and then you'd pay cash. Didn't have to get out the car.”
ANVSJ - Darley Dale Pallets, Storage and Sales has been approached for a comment.
