Longsight Post Office
The Former Longsight Post Office

Located on Stockport road just south of Richmond Grove, this was our local post office.


Outside were the telephone boxes, that everyone relied upon in the days when most people didn't have a phone at home, and inside a counter stretching along the side wall with blotting paper and pens on chains. I bought my savings stamps here and dreamed of being rich.
