The post-box off Middleton Road, near Plas Ffynnon Medical Centre, has been sealed off since May 11.
A sign, taped on the front of the mailbox, reads: “We’re making this temporary closure because the levels of dog fouling in front of the box are presenting a health and safety risk to both members of the public using the box and our staff collecting from it.
