In the past, postal services have been vital to communities like Berowra. Post was used to send and receive news, information, letters, and parcels and even for sending eggs!
These days traditional mail is in decline because the electronic options of our era are taking over.
However, postal services in places like Berowra were not established quickly, rather it was an evolving process that took time in order to fulfill the needs of the community.
This is the story of Berowra: Going Postal.
