Post Office services are set to be restored to South Hatfield next month after a reopen date was confirmed.

Unit 14 at 10 Hilltop Way will be the new home for the Post Office, which will be open to customers Thursday, August 24, after the former site at 12 High View closed back in November.

The Post Office opening hours will be Monday to Saturday from 8.30am to 5.30pm, providing 54 hours of Post Office service a week for customers.

"We are delighted to soon be restoring a Post Office to this area as we know how important a Post Office is to a community," said Zoe Hall, Post Office Network Provision Lead.

"The branch’s opening hours will make it convenient for customers to visit."

The original High View Post Office closed last year when Morrisons announced it would be shutting all McColl's stores across the UK following their takeover.
