Prices are reported by the forecourts themselves to the UK Government's Fuel Finder scheme, which requires every change to be published within 30 minutes. FuelWise reads the feed every 15 minutes. Each price shows when it was reported; prices older than 30 days and stations that have stopped reporting are left out.
