A COUPLE who have served the Grimethorpe community for almost 30 years retired this week.
Postmistress Stella Milner and her husband, David, have run the village’s Post Office, on High Street, for 29 years but Monday marked their last day. They’re looking forward to spending more time with their family in their retirement.
Stella told the Chronicle: “It’s sad as we’ve been here for 29 years but now is the time to retire. There’s been ups and downs and although Grimethorpe has had its fair share of criticism, it’s a wonderful village and it’s full of decent people who we will miss.”
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
