BARROWFORD Post Office is set to move from its current home to a new base in a convenience store in the village.
Post Office bosses have announced the office will move from its base at Gisburn Road to the Spar store at The Fountains, 200 yards away.
A consultation was held with residents ahead of the move, which will take place in the next few months.
A Post Office spokesman said: "We have considered all the points raised during the consultation but we consider the move is the right decision. As well as helping to safeguard our presence in the area, it will allow us to provide improved facilities for our customers.
"The new branch will incorporate a purpose-built serving counter with low-level facilities for wheelchair users and an induction hearing loop. Opening hours will be increased."
The date of the move will be announced soon.
