What is recorded here

Cast-iron post box, erected c.1905, with ER VII royal cipher and crown. Mounted in stone wall of former ticket office of Edenderry Railway Station. Maker’s mark ‘W.T. Allen & Co. London’ to base.
The modest form of this post box is enhanced by the simple and well designed lettering and crown, which also adds an artistic quality to the piece. The post box is a significant feature of the town's social and urban fabric. The cipher identifies the reign of Edward VII (1901-1910). The London firm of founders, W.T. Allen & Co., was in operation from 1881-1955.
