Misdirection

Of all people, the post office should know their own address! Yesterday, we received an 'unfortunately we can't deliver your item' card. A letter or packet had insufficient postage. We can go to the post office to collect it (should we chose to). Helpfully, the Royal Mail provides the address: 18, St Peter's Square.

Now check the Welsh. A different address.

We then asked Google for directions from no. 18 to no. 19. This is what we found. No.19 appears to be the pillar box. It takes a minute on foot or by bike and, apparently, is 'mostly flat'. Will Levelling Up change that to 'as flat as a pancake'?

Having got the circumflex right for 'Sgŵar', note the Post Office's Welsh misspelling of 'Rhuthun'.
