The house, which was used for the old telephone exchange, and some of the land will be sold as soon as possible.

As the house has now been unoccupied for a matter of two years and as I drew the attention of the Post Office to this matter about 12 months ago, may I urge that something should be done about it urgently?

Yes. A certain amount of work still has to be done by way of new fencing and lavatories and extending the existing access drive, but thereafter the house will be sold as soon as possible.
