Post Office

If you arrive in Port Sunlight by train today, the first building you’ll probably notice as you walk out of the station, is the Tudor Rose Tea Rooms.

But for those of us lucky enough to grow up in the village, then the building you would have seen on the corner of Greendale Road & Park Road was the old Post Office.

I think I have been in the Tea Rooms just the once but I would have stood in the Post Office countless times either buying a bag of cinder toffee or waiting to cash my dole cheque!

To see how the Post Office looked in 1953 take a look at the Then & Now Tab.

“The Village Post Office fits in well with the general architecture. Port Sunlight Railway Station is in the background.”
from the Story of Port Sunlight
