What is recorded here
Wall-mounted cast-iron post box, erected c. 1890, with VR lettering and crown insignia. Manufacturer's name on base: 'W.T. Allen & Co. London.'
Cast-iron post boxes such as this are becoming increasing rare throughout Ireland, often replaced with mass produced boxes. The simple, well designed lettering and crown motif enhance its modest form and adds artistic interest to the box.
