Stanfield Road Post Office occupied this small frontage to the right of the off licence, from 1930 when it replaced a branch in nearby Heathwood Road, till its closure in March 2004. Although its address is 58a Stanfield Road, its door faces Withermoor Road - Stanfield is the other road at this junction. It was one of the smallest suburban sub-post offices anywhere and its actual date of closure was a few weeks later than the other Bournemouth ones, because at the time the main Winton office was closed for a short period mid-move (see Image).
