Located near the eastern edge of the village, at the entrance to Pontrilas Business Park, near the A465 junction. Although the name Pontrilas is of Welsh origin (there are many such place names in western Herefordshire), the village is about a mile on the English side of the border. Compare the simple 'Post Office' here with the bilingual sign at Mardy post office http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2580861 about 10 miles away, in Wales. The former Pontrilas post office http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2593060 is about 70 metres to the west.
