I imagine that from the air this would just look like a double-garage attached to one of the large houses along Lenthay Road. It is in fact the former post office, which opened in the summer of 1937. On 12 October 1995 it was replaced by West End Post Office (see Image]). The premises are currently a funeral director's office.
