The building is still there, but it doesn't look like it is a Post Office any longer ...

There used to be a post office in Puddington as well at one time, not sure when it closed, perhaps 1980 (ish), then people from the village had to go to Burton, and i fell sure the post office moved into Swift's butchers shop over the road, and last time i passed that shop was empty !.
