Postal users in our communities have suffered a double whammy.
In addition to the 90 day closure notice that has been put on Hadfield Sorting Office, with the implication that this has for the future of Hadfield Post Office itself, we are now told Tintwistle Post Office is under imminent threat of closure.
It is one of five postal offices within High Peak that face the axe as part of a national cull under the ominously named Network Change Programme. The other four are Birch Vale, Chapel Town End, Dove Holes and Peak Forest.
A full analysis and comment will follow in an imminent blog but for now it will suffice to say that it will form the main topic of discussion at our next Residents meeting, which will be at the New Lamp, Bankbottom, Hadfield on Monday July 7th at 8.00pm.
In the meantime you can click onto the Post Office website, here where you can comment online until 21/07/08 and here's the story and picture from the front of this week's glossop advertiser
