More about this scene
The village shop and post office are featured prominently in this picture. Like the pub and school, rural post offices are under constant threat of closure, and in recent times they have been closing at the rate of 400 a year. One third of Britain's country dwellers now have no access to a local shop.

I remember the Great Dane in the picture. My Grandma had a Yorkshire/Manchester Terrier cross, and the two animals looked so incongruous when they met. My aunt Doris Greenslade lived in a tiny cottage owned by Walter Little Senior situated 100 yards to the left of the post office in the picture.
