THE owners of a Kendal Post Office have ended their ownership of the business.

The post office, located at 65 Sandylands Road, is currently closed for a refit and was previously run by Pauline and Alan who will be missed in the community.

The owners ended their running of the office on Thursday, November 10. 

After the re-opening of the shop the new owners will take cover the post office. 

Messages thanking the owners for their work and wishing them the best for the future were posted online. 

One post said: "Today is the Pauline and Alan last day at the Post Office, the Post Office will be closed for two weeks to have a refit, and we will be welcoming a new family to Sandylands.

"We may still see Alan as he’s going to help with the transition over to the new people.

"We would like to wish Pauline, Alan and family good luck with their new adventure, you will be sadly missed here on Sandylands but we know you are not going too far, so will see you around Kendal, Sandylands Post Office won’t be the same without you."
