Former Lydbrook Post Office Viewed in March 2016. A September 2009 Google Earth Street View shows this red and white building when it was the village post office. Though the name has been removed, the ghosts of the letters LYDBROOK POST OFFICE remain on the nameboard. The postbox on the right side of the former post office has had its opening sealed and its red paint removed, leaving a black surface. The white fronted building next door is the Old Apothecary.
