What is recorded here

Post box in Cloghatacka still takes letters, though its own maker’s name has become unreadable. A fine one to demand a clear address. “And who made you?” “We’re discussing your handwriting.”

Wall-mounted cast-iron post box, erected c. 1940, with raised lettering. Manufacturer's name illegible on base. Mounted in rubble stone roadside wall.
This cast-iron post box, which is still in use, is an attractive item of street furniture and represents a notable surviving artifact of mass-produced cast-iron work. It was most likely maufactured by W.T. Allen and Co. of London. The post-box forms an attractive roadside feature.
