The modest general store on the corner of Second Avenue and Main Street in Norwich, with its angled awning on wooden pillars, echoes back to a time before two World Wars and automobiles brought profound change to retailing…. In a walled-off corner, carved out of the back office on the south end of the store, sits another of the store’s goods and services. That is where Norwich’s community post office is tucked away, where residents can access their post office boxes and basic postal supplies 24 hours a day. Norwich has not had a post office for many years. But residents say having that secure location in the heart of town is vital for this community of little more than 400 people less than 40 miles southwest of Wichita.
