I love British village post offices - they are all so individual and quaint - some timber framed, some with thatched roofs, always adorned with beautiful baskets of cascasing flowers. Inside there are always treasures to be found- little items for the home, cute nick-nacks, soaps, stationary, sweets. During my time living in England I always enjoyed browsing through post offices - so different from those in North America!

The beautiful thatched post office in Brighstone on the Isle of Wight, situated on a lovely, quiet street.
