What is recorded here

Freestanding cast-iron pillar box, erected c. 1915. Situated at the junction of Roseville Gardens and Corbally Road. Dome top with fluted crown above cyma reversa moulding. Raised lettering reading: Post Office and GR lettering with crown insignia above.

An appealing artefact in cast-iron making a subtle impression on the streetscape. The raised moulding, detailing the royal crown, adds some historical interest. The cipher is that of George V (1865-1936) who reigned over Ireland from 1910-1921. A pillar post box stood near this site in the 1870s.
