What is recorded here

Wall-mounted cast-iron post box, installed c.1905. Royal cipher of Edward VII and crown embossed to front (south), having embossed canopy to letter slot. Set within rubble stone and partially rendered wall.

This cast-iron post box, which is still in use, is a subtle but important feature in the landscape. The modest design of this post box is enhanced by the royal cipher with crown motif, which enlivens the appearance of this otherwise functional object. It dates to the reign of Edward VII and is a subtle historical artefact. Many pre-independence post boxes were simply painted green and retained their royal insignia but are now becoming rare.
