What is recorded here
Cast-iron wall-mounted post box, c. 1930, with P&T and manufacturer’s insignia.
This is one of a series of mass-produced post boxes having a simple functional form enhanced by raised lettering. It serves as a reminder of early twentieth-century Ireland, when the postal service was generally the only means of long-distance communication. Such boxes are becoming rare.
