Overview

We are delighted to let you know that following a temporary closure of Cottam Post Office we will be re-opening the branch permanently, subject to planning premission, on Monday 25 September 2023 at 10.00.  This will be in the current temporary location – The Cottam Community Centre, Haydocks Lane, Cottam, Preston, PR4 0NY. 

Your new Post Office branch

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

 

Why your views matter

Whilst the decision has already been made to reopen this branch, we would still like your views on access at the new location. We welcome feedback that can help inform our plans and the questionnaire below asks for comments on the following areas:

  • Access into the new premises (Question 4)
  • Access inside the new premises (Question 5)
  • Any further feedback on our plans (Question 6)

What happens next

Thank you for your support in restoring the Post Office service in Cottam.
