Liberal Democrat Councillors for Butt Lane, Dennis Richards and Silvia Burgess today launched a campaign to make Butt Lane a postal address (locality name) in its own right.
Currently residents of Butt Lane have to write their address as 'Talke', despite Butt Lane having its own Post Office and the local collection office. This causes confusion to visitors and irritation to those proud to live in Butt Lane.
It is a shame that Royal Mail issued a special stamp commemorating The Spitfire, designed by Reginald Mitchell, but does not currently recognise his birthplace as a valid postal address.
Sign our online petition to request Royal Mail to recognise Butt Lane as a valid locality or send us a letter of support at Butt Lane Liberal Democrats, 35 Church Street, Talke, Stoke-on-Trent, ST7 1NX.
