Post Office

The building is a single-storey Post Office dating from 1936. It features a hipped grey slate roof with graduated courses and coved eaves. The exterior is finished in roughcast render above pale cream limestone, with dressings in the same stone.

The façade facing Strand Street has seven bays, including two doors and five large sash windows with small panes. The stone sills have aprons that connect to the plinth. The public entrance has a limestone surround and a pediment that displays the date 1936 and the monogram of Edward VIII. The entrance doors are panelled in pale wood, and there is a panelled door to a private entrance, which is painted and has a fanlight above it. On the north side, there is a pair of large sash windows similar to those at the front.

At the rear, there are service blocks constructed from the same materials, partly designed in a Neo-Georgian style. These include a glazed iron canopy over a loading bay and skylights in the long hipped roof. A large yard is located behind a rendered wall, which is accessed through a gateway flanked by pillars topped with globe finials.

Inside, the Post Office retains original fittings such as a pale wood porch, panelling, counters, desks, a posting box, doors, and a telephone booth. The doors feature original brass fittings, and the floors are covered with contemporary tiles. The ceilings are simple Neo-Georgian, with coved and moulded designs.
