| Lacock residents are more determined than ever to save their post office |
LACOCK trader Keith Bulson said villagers are more determined than ever to
save their post office after seven closures across Wiltshire were announced
today.
The decision on Lacock and Yatton Keynell branches has been postponed for
further consultation.
Mr Bulson, who owns Lacock Woollen Centre, said: "I am very suspicious about
extended consultation. If something is worth saving it is worth saving.
"If the post office was to close it would affect my business. People visit
Lacock from all over the world and often post gifts back home. If they can't
do this I am worried the tourist trade will suffer dramatically in Lacock.
"The post office is part of our community and would be a huge blow to
villagers if it were to go.
"People visit the post office daily. We need it. I just hope we don't lose
it."
