61318 - Compton, IL - U.S. Post Offices on Waymarking.com

This office is a bit unusual. It is held in the corner of a building that also serves as a township maintenance equipment building; but the more unusual part is that the zip code is not displayed with the town name on the side of the building or the door. (I guess that if you have to ask, then "you ain't from around here, aire yah?") The history of nearby Melugin's Grove (now gone) and Compton can be found here.

Type of structure:: Municipal building complex re-enter Zip Code here:: 61318 Current Status:: Still in Use

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.

A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.

If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
