About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk on Wroxham Road, a postal carrier noticed something odd. The mailbox of an old house seemed to open and close by itself, as if someone were coming and going without ever stepping outside. Curious, the carrier approached closer. Out stepped an elderly gentleman wearing an old-fashioned hat, waving cheerfully. ‘Just practicing for Halloween,’ he said with a twinkle in his eye. The next day, everyone received their mail promptly—no more mysterious comings and goings.
2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to an empty mailbox and asked himself aloud, ‘Who could possibly be living here now?’ He got out of his truck, stretched, and walked towards the house next door. A friendly old neighbor poked his head out of the door and said, 'Morning! Thought I'd never see you around these parts!' The driver grinned sheepishly, realizing he’d moved into the neighborhood without noticing the new signpost. That evening, everyone in Wroxham gathered for tea at the local pub, celebrating the arrival of their newest resident.
3. At closing time one day, the postmaster heard a voice over the intercom: ‘Anyone seen my letter? I left it somewhere around here.’ The postmaster smiled and replied, ‘It’s right here on your desk!’ There was a moment of silence before the voice said, ‘Oh no, that’s someone else’s letter.’ The postmaster chuckled as he switched off the intercom, thinking to himself, ‘Another day, another lost letter—at least nobody gets bored around here!’
4. At lunchtime in Wroxham Road’s post office, a delivery driver looked around puzzled. ‘Where did everyone go?’ he whispered, glancing at the empty counters and silent mailboxes. Just then, an elderly gentleman approached the counter, adjusting his glasses. 'Morning,' he said cheerfully. 'Anything interesting happened while I was out?' The delivery driver blinked several times before replying, 'Well, sir, it seems that everyone decided to take their lunch break—all at once!'
