Former Head Post Office, 42, Eden Street, Kingston upon Thames - Kingston upon Thames

Post office built in 1875. Three storeys in red brick with stone dressings. The building had been vacant for many years. Planning Permission was granted for a wider redevelopment, including the repair and re-use of this building, and works are complete. Part of the building is being used as a marketing suite for the overall development and the building itself is being marketed for a new end user (at May 2024). The upper levels have been let to a tenant for community use.
