Wow. Just Wow.
This place is incredible; I could have spent a whole day in here and camped over! My God, why do they not build such luscious Post Offices anymore?!
This Art Deco Post Office in The Midlands in England opened in 1935 and was built from coarse grained De Lank Granite.
By 1954 this was the first post office in the UK to have a machine that informed package senders the postage to anywhere in the world.
The site closed its doors in November 2007 and has sat ever since. It costs the taxpayer £30,000 a year and was sold to the City Council for £1.4 Million ($2.12 Million) in 2008
There was talk about demolition to make way for student accommodation. I would be very sad if that happened.
Please excuse my awful, noisy photos.
