Coverage

The Court House is now home to Stradbroke library and post office. This building is, and always has been, a place for the community and adapts to the community’s need whilst retaining its name and through that name, its link to the past. Source: BNA NB: The Guardian, 30th March, 2016 “Some libraries have adapted to change brilliantly: Stradbroke Library in Suffolk won an award earlier this month, for its clever combination of library and post office (the post office revenues have boosted the library’s income and library visits have shot up from 1000 per month in 2013/4 to 2700 per month now). A village that might easily have ended up with neither library nor post office has managed to retain both” Natalie Haynes.
