Waterfoot post office celebrates 100 years
10:51am Monday 5th January 2009 in News
A VALLEY post office has celebrated 100 years of service, despite talk of closure last year.
Waterfoot Post Office, in Burnley Road East, overcame great financial uncertainty to achieve century status.
The building, formerly a sorting office, became a post office when that facility was moved to Rawtenstall.
Three years ago Ty Zubair took over the Rossendale business and has survived the credit crunch.
The post office has now been given a ‘secure’ status for the forseeable future.
The business offers the only banking and post office facilities for two miles.
