Hill Stops Postal

Village's postal deliveries stops because it's on a hill.
Delivering the mail to a hamlet has turned out be an uphill struggle...
Postal bosses have decided the road is "too steep" and are cancelling the service - to the fury of villagers.
Residents of 11 homes in "BOOZE", in the Yorkshire Dales, face a 30- mile round trip to Richmond to collect post.
Royal Mail acted because a health and safety report said the route was too dangerous.

"BOOZE" DESPITE THE NAME HAS NO PUB.
