Brown Edge residents will soon return to having their own post office after the village had to make-do without the facility for several months.

Brown Edge Post Office will be reopening at Nisa on High Lane from Monday next week (August 24th).

It will also be operating under longer opening hours - open seven days a week from 7am - 9pm on Mondays to Saturdays and 10am - 9pm on Sundays.

After the previous branch closed, the post office was originally due to open in March, however this was postponed due to the Coronavirus outbreak.

It meant that the village's residents had to make-do without their own post office throughout lockdown, with the nearest other post office being in Stockton Brook.
