A relatively large building, this Post Office was built to replace an earlier on nearby Church Lane which links Andrew and Suffolk Streets to College Green. The original building was demolished, and the site now incorporated into the former Ulster Bank building. The otherwise plain stone exterior is decorated by roundels depicting icons connected with communications.
