New Post Office opens its doors

The new Alderley Edge Post Office has opened at 12 West Street.

Following a period of consultation the relocation has taken place from London Road to a new 'main style' branch with extended opening hours.

The same range of products and services are available at the new West Street branch which is also a card and stationery store.

The Alderley Edge Post Office will continue to be run by Interim Enterprises, with extended hours to include Saturday afternoons and a ramp which provides easier access.

Post Office Regional Network Manager for Central England, Adrian Wales, said: "We understand how important having a Post Office is to residents in Alderley Edge and we are confident that the new branch will meet the needs of the local community and secure services for the future."

Opening hours are: Monday to Saturday 9am to 5.30pm.

The Bubble Room were granted a change of use for 45 London Road, from A1 retail to A3/A4 restaurant and bar, and a new license last year to enable them to extend their business into the neighbouring property, following the relocation of the Post Office. We will keep you informed as the works at The Bubble Room progress.

That was quick, the consultation exercise only finished on January 14th! I'm sure that they won't have fitted out the premises before the consultation was completed.

Can anyone explain why the Bubble Room's application for change of use at 45 London Road was granted, whereas the Pizza Express application was turned down? Seems odd!

Great to see the Post Office in it's new location and wonderful that we have been able to retain this service in the village

Really like the new post office and great news for The Bubble Room. Finally, some sensible decisions.

Will there be a post box or maybe a letter box to post items?

Martyn...the new P.O. has requested a postbox and that request is expected to be granted.
