Overview

We are proposing to move the above Post Office branch to a new location: 72 Middlewood Road, Sheffield, S6 4HA.

Why are we moving?

Our Postmasters operate Post Office branches alongside their private retail business, and it is important that they make the very best use of their resources to ensure future sustainability of both their business and the Post Office service. In this case, the Postmaster has identified an opportunity to move this branch into an alternative location to continue to offer Post Office services to the local community. Our Postmaster firmly believes that the move will help secure continued access to Post Office services locally, as well as supporting the viability of their business.

The current Post Office will close on Thursday 30 May 2019 at 17:30 and your new-look Post Office will open at the new premises on Friday 07 June 2019 at 13:00.

During transfer of the branch customers requiring Post Office facilities may use any convenient Post Office service. Details of an alternative Post Office branch are provided below for your convenience:

  • Wadsley Bridge Post Office, Leppings Lane, Sheffield, S6 1LR
