Six post offices to shut
SIX post offices will be closed in Enfield, it has been announced.
Post Office Ltd swung the axe yesterday on 155 post offices across London with the closures coming into effect as early as next month.
The branches affected in the borough are at Chase Side, Enfield; Freezywater, in Hertford Road, Enfield; Green Street, Enfield; Clock House Parade, Palmers Green; Town Road, Edmonton and Crescent West, Hadley Wood.
The post offices have been under threat for several months, and despite campaigning by residents and MPs, the decision has been taken to close them following a near three-month review.
There was good news for the post office at Enfield Wash, though, as the franchise has been taken on by stationery giant WH Smith and it will keep trading.
