Barriere is in the Central North Thompson Valley in beautiful British Columbia. Barriere is at the confluence of the Barriere River and North Thompson River making this an ideal recreational location. It has approximately 1,700 residents.
The Barriere Post Office is a small brick building with a flat roof. The white arch over the entrance adds character to the front.
The Postal Box 666 is just as you enter the post office. It is the small section in the back.
In 1914, Barriere built their first post office and railway station. Barriere is a small community with down home hospitality as you will be in "Cowboy Country" with large ranches and vast fields of hay and grain. They hold an annual fall fair and rodeo in early September.
