§ Brigadier-General CLIFTON BROWNasked the Postmaster-General whether he has considered the application of Mr. Piper, Cold Ash, near Newbury, to establish a post office there; and, in view of the increase in the inhabitants in that district, whether he will accede to his request?
§ Mr. LEES-SMITHAn application from Mr. Piper for the establishment of a sub-post office at Ashmore Green was considered in October, 1929, but as there was already a post office at Cold Ash, less than a mile distant, his request could not be entertained. I am informed that there has been no change in the circumstances since 1929 which would warrant the opening of a post office at Ashmore Green.
