The new Post Office will be open every Monday to Saturday from 7am to 9pm, as well as Sundays from 8am to 8pm.
Anthony Bayley, Post Office change manger, said: “We are delighted to have restored a Post Office to Orton Malborne before the busy Christmas period. The branch is open longer hours than before.
