This Pub is Closed Long Term

As the name suggests the Postal Order is in the premises of the former Post Office. Situated on the Crystal Palace triangle, it provides the usual JDW offering in a one-bar pub which is popular with locals. It is smaller than some of the chain's other local outlets. The pubco announced in March 2021 that they will be giving up the lease and not reopening.

There has been no planning application for change of use, so for now this site remains as a long term closed pub.
