The Post Office

The Post Office is a building located on Front Street in Bamburgh, constructed in 1891. It is made of ashlar stone and features a red-tiled roof, designed in a Gothick style that complements the nearby houses, particularly Nos. 17-22 Front Street. The building has two storeys and consists of two bays, with a central pointed-arched doorway. On either side of the doorway are flanking 2-light windows with arched heads and hoodmoulds. The first floor has two 4-pane sash windows with arched heads; the window on the left is dated 1891, while the one on the right is inscribed "Longstone Cottage." The left bay features a cross-gabled design, and there is a window in a gabled half-dormer on the right. The roof is gabled with flat coping, kneelers, and corniced end stacks.
