What is recorded here

Wall-mounted cast-iron post box, c.1915, with GR royal cipher with crown motif to top and SE emblem to base. Mounted in random coursed limestone wall to side of road west of Saint Columba's Catholic Church. Maker’s mark 'W.T. Allen & Co. London' to base.

The cast-iron post box is significant in terms of the combination of the emblems: the royal cipher identifies the reign of George V (1910-1921) and the Saorstat Éireann represents the Irish Free State following 1921. The London firm of founders, W.T. Allen & Co., was in operation from 1881-1955.
