Overview

We are moving the above Post Office branch to a new location: Unit 7, The Stonebow Centre, Silver Street, Lincoln, LN2 1DY.

Why are we moving?

Our partners and agents 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, our partner has identified an opportunity to move this branch.

The area in which the current branch is located is being redeveloped and the current branch is scheduled to close on Tuesday 23 February 2021 at 13:00.

The new premises, which is currently empty, will undergo a refurbishment to incorporate Sincil Street Post Office. The new branch is scheduled to open on Friday 26 February 2021 at 13:00. Our priority is to safeguard Post Office services to the local community in the longer term and the relocation of Sincil Street Post Office will enable us to maintain a Post Office service to our customers in the local community.

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

  • Monks Road Post Office, 189 Monks Road, Lincoln, LN2 5JP
  • Bailgate Post Office, 90 Bailgate, Lincoln, LN1 3AE
