Pair of cast-iron post boxes, c. 1970.

This pair of post boxes is representative of the final phase of cast-iron post boxes in Ireland. Today, contemporary post boxes are generally plastic and often replace the distinctive cast-iron box. It is important to afford protection to these cast-iron boxes, as are they are no longer in production. It is interesting to note the changes in the decorative detail of cast-iron post boxes from Victorian times to the latter part of the twentieth century.
