Uplands Post Office, Stroud
Located in Springfield House, at the junction of Uplands Road and Springfield Road (on the right), Uplands Post Office is a rare example of a post office reopening after being closed down.
In 2008, this post office was one of seven in the Stroud area to be closed, as part of the cost-cutting exercise which closed 2,500 post offices in the UK.
After a vigorous local campaign, and financial support from Stroud town council, the post office reopened a few months after closure. A key factor was a High Court ruling that a local 74-year-old disabled person would be discriminated against because of the difficulties she would face getting to another post office.
