Dear Mr Buckley,

Re: Disappearance of Royal Mail Post Box on Glebe Street/ Salts Street, Longley Street, Hillside Avenue and Milnrow Road, Long Rushes (High Crompton), Shaw, Oldham.

 Further to my letter sent to you on 24 May 2016, I have continuously been contacted by a number of my concerned constituents; that their local Royal Mail Post Box has disappeared/been removed without any notice.

To my knowledge, five Post Boxes have disappeared in the Shaw area in the last six months without prior notice.

The mail boxes in question are situated on Glebe Street/ Salts Street junction, Longley Street, Hillside Avenue and Milnrow Road, all located in Shaw, Oldham, of which I have written to you about them previously, and now a fifth one which has been brought to my attention located in Long Rushes in High Crompton.

I would welcome a dialog and some information about this matter regarding the re-installation or re-location of this particular Post Box.

In the past I have supported Royal Mail proposals to small re-locations so that the Post Box is still available to local residents and also ‘works’ for Royal Mail.

Hopefully you will be in a position to replace the Post Boxes as soon as possible to alleviate the inconvenience and distress it is causing for my constituents.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours sincerely

Howard Sykes
