HC Deb 10 August 1966 vol 733 cc342-3W
Rear-Admiral Morgan Giles

asked the Postmaster-General why he has decided to close the sub-post office at the junction of Broadway and Eastgate Street in Winchester.

Mr. Joseph Slater

Because we could not justify its retention when the large new head post office counter is opened in Middlebrook Street, only some 350 yards away, on 2nd September. The new counter will be equipped and staffed to cater for people who now use the sub-post office as well as for those who use the present head post office counter.
