ROYAL Mail has completed a major revamp of its Wrexham Delivery Office

Outdated standalone buildings have been demolished and replaced with a new 475-square metre extension to the main building - which includes extra sorting facilities, a new customer service point and improved staff areas.

Royal Mail said the revamp represents a significant investment in upgrading its service to the local area.
