What is recorded here

Cast-iron post box, c.1915, set within red brick gate pier to Jonestown House. GR royal cipher with crown symbol above letter aperture. Maker’s mark ‘W.T. Allen & Co. London’ to base.

Located at crossroads on the road to Edenderry, this post box is still in use. The cast detail of the royal cipher provides an artistic significance to this functional object. It identifies the reign of George V (1910-1921). The London firm of founders, W.T. Allen & Co., was in operation from 1881-1955.
