WE WERE very shocked to read your article about the closure of the Post Office in Windsor Road and cannot understand the reasoning behind it.

Perhaps this is one of the causes of the Post Office being in financial difficulties.

As you know we have a large population of older people in Penarth who will find this closure very inconvenient, because it will mean that we will have no Post Office in the main shopping area in Penarth.

Surely this will be a problem for local businesses as well.

We have always found Mr Bingham and his staff extremely helpful.
