HC Deb 22 September 1948 vol 456 c104W
Mr. Baker White

asked the Postmaster-General why the post office at Fordwich, near Canterbury, has been closed.

Mr. Wilfred Paling

The sub-post office at Fordwich was closed on the 31st December, 1947, because the former sub-postmaster could no longer carry on the service, the lease of his premises having expired. With a post office rather less than half a mile away, the maintenance of a post office at Fordwich is not justified.
