The general Post Office in Beaconsfield has now moved elsewhere, but they retain an interest in this property at 13 Station Road as a Delivery and Enquiry Office, while a barbers now occupies the area with the red canopies over the windows. The building was constructed around 1926 to the plans of the architect David Nicholas Dyke, who was a prolific designer of post offices around that time. The photographer is indebted to fellow Geographer Julian Osley http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/11136 for the latter data abstracted from the specific page on his website here http://britishpostofficearchitects.weebly.com/beaconsfield.html
