Strategic partner · counters in both shops
Wootton and Clapham each hold the village Post Office. Banking, bill payments, letters and parcels, collections and returns, and travel money at Clapham — all of it happens here rather than in Bedford, and the counters bring both villages through the door every day. That is why the Post Office is a strategic partner of the shops rather than just another service we offer.
