Wells BA5 2RA - 321504

Overview

We are delighted to let you know that following the temporary closure of Wells Post Office we will be re-opening the branch on Monday 6 September 2021 at 13:00. This will be in a new location - Natural Pets of Wells, 18 Queen Street, Wells, BA5 2DP.

A temporary Post Office service commenced on Tuesday 12 January 2021 at Wells Bus Station Ticket Office, Princes Road, Wells, BA5 1TE and is planning to continue until Friday 3 September 2021. Whilst this arrangement has enabled us to maintain Post Office services locally, our priority has always been to find a long-term sustainable solution and we are confident that reopening a permanent branch at the new premises operated by new postmaster will provide this.

Your new Post Office branch

Customers would access Post Office services at two low-screened, open-plan, modern serving points that are part of the retail counter. Working with the postmaster, we’d adapt the current store layout, fixtures and fittings to accommodate the Post Office tills if needed.

The branch will offer a wide range of Post Office products and services. 

We have provided posters for display in the premises of the current temporary Wells Post Office service let customers know the good news. 

We are keen to restore services to this community as soon as possible so we are now progressing with these plans. However, we would welcome suggestions about specific aspects of the change such as access arrangements and the internal layout.

What happens next

Thank you for your support in restoring permanent Post Office service in Wells.
