Royal Mail workers have gathered as part of a 24-hour walkout in a dispute over pay.
More than 115,000 postal staff, including delivery workers and those in sorting offices, are staging the industrial action nationwide.
The Communication Workers Union (CWU) has said workers are striking for a “dignified, proper pay rise”.
As well as today’s industrial action, Royal Mail staff plan to strike on Wednesday August 31, Thursday September 8 and Friday September 9.
