Post Office Ltd wants to move Stone’s post office into the Co-op supermarket in the High Street from its current base just across the road.
The Post Office has now started a consultation to hear what local people have to say. It says moving the post office into the Co-op would result in a modern branch with longer opening hours. The post office counter would be open in the Co-op from 8am to 7pm Monday to Friday, and 8am to 5.30pm on a Saturday.
The Post Office says the same range of services and products would be available.
The consultation is open until Tuesday 13th November.

I haven’t been to Stone in a few months, has the Co-op closed or relocated or what?

Hi Buzz. The Co-op on the High Street is exactly where it was!

Hi Chris – absolutely! I think a move for the post office into the Co-op is probably a good thing. I just worry about another empty building in the High Street… ^Jamie

Another empty building on the high street? Longer opening hours would ultimately benefit the town though. Also the current building is so dirty and depressing..

Yes, the current building is a mess isn’t it? Things haven’t been right for years, and especially after it closed down unexpectedly last year was it??
