A NORTH Lancashire town's post office is to open a new branch - bucking the trend of widespread branch closures.
Mike Bowker, sub-postmaster at Carnforth Post Office, in Market Street, is to open a new branch in Halton this spring, replacing the branch that closed in the village more than a year ago.
The outreach service will consist of a Post Office kiosk located within a doctor's surgery. The kiosk will offer postal services three days a week.
