What is recorded here

Wall-mounted cast-iron post box, c.1905, with ER VII royal cipher and crown motif. No longer in use and with door missing. Maker's name 'W.T Allen & Co., London' in raised lettering at base. Located in the demesne walls beside entrance gates to Ballyeighan House.
The modest form of this wall-mounted post box is enhanced by the royal cipher. Though no longer in service it survives in its original position at the gates to Ballyeighan House. It identifies the reign of Edward VII (1901-1910). The London firm of founders, W.T. Allen & Co., was in operation from 1881-1955.
