Bollington's only post office is set to close.

The impending closure of West Bollington Post Office on Wellington Road has been confirmed.

It comes after the current postmaster handed in his resignation ahead of his retirement this summer.

A Post Office spokesperson said: "We have recently received the resignation from the postmaster for West Bollington who has decided to retire.

"We want to thank him for 18 years of loyal service to this community.

"We are now finalising the date for the branch closure this summer and we will review Post Office service provision in the area.

"Alternative branches in the area are at Tytherington, Prestbury and Hurdsfield."

 While the closing date hasn't officially been confirmed, it has been reported on social media that the branch will cease trading from June 23.
