BPMA logoBritish postal services helped to shape the modern world. The British Postal Museum & Archive (BPMA) works to make this human story of communication, industry, and innovation accessible to everyone.

We care for the visual, written and physical records of over 400 years of postal development. This section will tell you more about the BPMA and the work we do to preserve and celebrate Britain's postal heritage.
