What is recorded here

Wall-mounted cast-iron post box, erected between 1910-22, with raised "GR" royal cipher. Located adjacent to rural road junction.

An attractive, if simple, item of street furniture that represents an early-surviving artefact of mass-produced cast-iron ware. The modest design of the box is enhanced by the royal cipher (identifying the reign of George V between 1910-1936) and the crown motif, which enliven the appearance of this otherwise functional object. This post box dates to the last years of English rule and is a subtle historical artifact in the rural landscape to the north of Rochfortbridge. Many pre-independence post boxes were simply painted green and retained their royal insignia but are becoming a rarer sight and are worthy of retention. It is located close to a rural junction, a common site for post boxes.
