A google map of post office closures

This is a Google Map made up from a list of post office closures listed on public servant daily.

The full list (see below) of the first 180 branches chosen for closure (and others to be incorporated into shops, pubs and other outlets under the so-called 'outreach' proposal) has been released. Eventually, 2,500 are expected to cease trading by the end of 2008.

The list was put in a spreadsheet (via google docs) and then through Yahoo Pipes which 'mapped' the data
