Crofton Park post office was open on Monday whilst Honor Oak was shut. There was a post on Facebook about this and I’m sure it was mentioned that Penge and Sydenham were also open.

Can't find it now but pretty sure I saw post offices on the list of essential shops to stay open

The main PO inside WHSmith is open from 9am-3pm weekdays and 9am-12.30 on Saturday until further notice.

EDIT: The PO website has the FO branch closed for now.

Hi all,

I hope everyone is keeping safe and well.

Just a quick update for those who haven’t seen that the Devonshire road branch of the Post Office is temporarily closed.

It is unclear at this point how long the branch will remain closed but I will share more information when I receive it.

In the meantime, you can find more information and share comments here - https://www.postofficeviews.co.uk/nation...hd-240007/ - and you can find alternatives branches here - https://www.postoffice.co.uk/branch-finder

Any questions, let me know at cllr_sophie.davis@lewisham.gov.uk

Best,
Sophie

I understand if WHSmith don't reopen the PO in three months, they're legally obliged to find another site for the Post Office in the local area.

The alternative branch at 295 Stanstead Road appears to be closed too.
