This is a very small little post office located in the centre of Billingham Cowpen estate. I'm a regular visitor and always find that the staff are very friendly and helpful. There's never really a queuing problem, as it is such a small post office and therefore does not ever get veery busy. The post office is actually within a small newspaper shop which offers a small selection of packaging products on sale as well as cards and some stationary products. The shop also sells newspaper, sweets, bread, milk and a few other nick nacks. The only problem is the staff can be quite pushy and try to make you buy the various insurances and credit cards which they have on offer. read more
