The Post Office has confirmed it will be axing 115 branches and hundreds of jobs in a major blow to Britain's struggling high street. However the Post Office on Teddington High Street will not close down.

The embattled postal giant said a significant number of jobs from its 1,000-strong head office staff were now at risk. 

And 115 major city centre Crown Post Offices will be scrapped, in a move that critics fear could leave pensioners and the vulnerable isolated. 

The news was broken by Post Office chairman Nigel Railton shortly after 9am yesterday, 13 November, during a meeting with staff.

The struggling firm is looking to offload the 115 most unprofitable sites from its 11,500-strong network. 

While Teddington's Post Office has not made the list, several post offices across London have, including in Islington and Kensington.
