What is recorded here
Cast-iron post box, c.1890, with V.R. insignia and crown, set in brick and painted stone wall.
Well-designed post box with raised lettering and crown which enhance its modest form. Cast-iron post boxes such as this are often replaced by modern plastic boxes and are becoming increasing rare throughout Ireland.
