East Meon had a Post Office in the middle of the 19th Century, then based at Glenthorne House with John Nathaniel Atkins as the postmaster. It subsequently moved to the corner of Church Street and the High Street and remained for over a hundred years, before moving briefly to Riverside and it is currently a sub-post office operating from East Meon General Stores.
