Stiperstones post office is safe



More good news from the Shropshire Star:
Local councillor for Chirbury, Heather Kidd, had sought assurances from Post Offices bosses after the postmaster in Pontesbury, Brian Simmonds, announced his wish to retire. 
The outreach post offices in Marton, Stiperstones and Wentnor come under his jurisdiction and there were fears for their future should he leave. But, according to the Post Office, following a series of lengthy discussions, a new option has now been found – securing the outreach services for the time being.
The story also quotes her fellow Liberal Democrat councillor Charlotte Barnes. The photograph shows Stiperstones post office - I always knew it would come in useful one day.
