What is recorded here
Wall-mounted cast-iron post box, erected c. 1930, with curved upper section and raised lettering. Mounted in rendered roadside wall.
This cast-iron post box, which is still in use, is an attractive item of street furniture and represents a notable surviving artifact of mass-produced cast-iron work. The raised Gaelic script lettering alludes to the Celtic Revival, representing the promotion of a national identity within the emergent independent state.
