Betchworth, Post Office 1928

More about this scene
This post office was built in 1900 on land belonging to the Betchworth Park Estate, and was designed to deal with the business of three villages, Betchworth, Brockham and Buckland, including sorting and stamping the mail with the village's own postmark. Until his retirement in 1926 the postmaster was John Skinner, but his principal interest lay in taking photographs for Francis Frith, and his daughter Lillian and eleven other staff carried out most of the postal business. It is still a post office and the only shop in the village.
