The Post Office; 1800s

A village Post Office was first mentioned in 1848. It is not clear where it was but in 1885 it was at 58, High Street, The Rowans, and remained there until about 1890. The sepia-tinted photograph from the early 1900s shows Lewin and Emma Heath and their children outside The Rowans. One of the children, Oliver, would later become the Park Lane baker.
