THE Post Office has confirmed its Colchester branch will be moving into W H Smith despite public outcry.
There had been a six-week public consultation on plans to move the branch from its historic building on North Hill to the stationary store in Lion Walk.
However despite calls from the public to keep the branch where it is, an email was sent to councillors saying staff had been told it would be moving.
The current branch will close at 5.30pm on May 1, with the new branch opening at 8.30am the following day.
