South Queensferry

Post Office

'Then' and 'Now'

The photographs above show the building in the High Street that the South Queensferry Post Office moved to, from its original site further along the High Street

Thank you to Frank Hay of the Queensferry History Group for restoring the first photograph above (originally a postcard, but never sent through the post) and for supplying the second photograph above.

Frank comments:

"The Post Office moved from its original location to the one above. I do not have dates for the occupancy of the two buildings by the Post Office, but we think the picture above was taken during the First World War as women workers were brought in to replace men sent to the front."
