What is recorded here

Cast-iron post box, c.1980, with moulded neck, curved cap and 'An Post' insignia.
This late twentieth-century post box is of a simple design, which has little decorative detailing. This functional object is representative of late twentieth-century design. Post boxes of the late twentieth century are becoming increasingly rare, as they are not afforded the protection of older boxes, though they are equally threatened by plastic replacements.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
