Little Milton Post Office

The thatched building on the left was once the village Post Office, and appears as such on the listed buildings register. http://www.heritagegateway.org.uk/Gateway/Results_Single.aspx?resourceID=5&uid=246470 C17 and C18/19, whitewashed coursed limestone rubble with timber lintels. This closed in 2000 and as a temporary measure the function was relocated to Wall Street Cottage, the tiled building in the centre. This is also Grade II listed, probably C17 shell, rendered limestone rubble. http://www.heritagegateway.org.uk/Gateway/Results_Single.aspx?resourceID=5&uid=246471 I understand that since this photo was taken the post office has found a home in the village community centre, and Wall Street Cottage has reverted to residential use. http://www.southoxon.gov.uk/ccm/support/serve.jsp?ID=1993028&CODE=BAF097FF64901BCF
