Millwey Rise Post Office was not originally one of the 2,500 selected for closure during 2008. But, after the reprieve of a few Devon offices initially threatened, this one was substituted. It will close some time in the autumn but to mitigate the effects of the closure, some form of replacement or 'outreach' service is being considered, such as a visiting mobile office. Attached to the left of the postbox, partially visible, is a drop box (see below).
