Title: Post Office in Long Cross Hill, 1908 [Go to resource]
Description: This picture shows Long Cross Hill between Headley High Street (uphill to the left) and Arford (downhill to the right). William Gamblen (1856-1942) was Postmaster here for more than 60 years—also Parish Clerk for 45 years and a chorister at All Saints for 75 years. After he died, his daughter, Ethel Carter, carried on the business. There was also a Bank here, entered by the door on the left. Around 1956 the Post Office moved from here to Church Gate House in the High Street, until closing there in March 2002.
