Wallisdown Post Office and general store is having an external makeover, and just for the moment we can see a 1970s signboard which has remained hidden for 30-odd years: it says "Brian Pursey - News - Food -and- Greeting cards - Post Office". The old fashioned painted wooden board is wonderfully contrasted alongside the shiny new Post Office end piece. See Image for a closer view of the signboard from the far end.
