What is recorded here

Wall-mounted cast-iron post box, erected c.1940, with raised 'P&T' monogram. Maker’s name to base of frame. Set in painted rendered wall.
This post box is an example of the work of the London foundry of W. T. Allen & Co. The raised detailing of the 'P&T' monogram enhances its otherwise functional design. The use of Gaelic lettering was common on public structures in post-Independence Ireland, although the box may predate Independence with the door being a replacement.
