Post Office on Lowther Street
The main Post Office in Whitehaven, erected in 1897 near the top of Lowther Street, is set back and between the HSBC and NatWest Banks. An inscription on the NatWest building (centre frame) shows this was originally the "Bank of Whitehaven Ltd". The tower in the background belongs to the former Methodist Church, now closed and up for sale.

Access to the service yard, which serves both Whitehaven Library and Whitehaven Civic Centre is from Catherine Street just visible in the right background, with Morrison’s’ supermarket visible beyond.
The white van still carries the logo of Cumbria County Council, more than one month after it had been superseded by Cumberland and Westmorland and Furness Councils.
