What is recorded here

wall-mounted cast-iron post box, c.1905, with ER VII royal cipher and crown motif. No longer in use. Maker’s mark ‘W.T. Allen & Co. London’ to base. Located on roadside outside St. Manchan's National School.

Though no longer in use this post box is a notable feature in the boundary wall of Saint Manchan's National School located at the busy crossroads at Lemanaghan and surrounded by the ruins of Saint Managhan Church and Lemanaghan Castle. The royal cipher identifies the reign of Edward VII (1901-1910). The London firm of founders, W.T. Allen & Co., was in operation from 1881-1955.
