Last week's announcement by Post Office Ltd that Ross Post Office was planning to move to the Gwalia Store in Broad Street caused a great deal of confusion in the town.

Many people know the Post Office has to move but the new location was a surprise until a spokesperson for Post Office Ltd admitted that they had sent out incorrect information to the media. A spokesperson for the Post Office told the Ross Gazette: "A communications error on the part of Post Office Ltd led to the printing of posters and issuing of a press release with incorrect information."

He continued: "We would like to take this opportunity to state that this branch will not be moving to Gwalia Store on Broad Street. Customers can rest assured that service will continue at the current Ross on Wye Post Office at The Maltings for the foreseeable future. We would like to apologise for any inconvenience that the confusion has caused."

John Pugh assured the Ross Gazette that as soon as the lease is signed he will let everyone know where the Post Office will be located.
