Pole mounted cast-iron rectangular post box, installed c.1960, with post office insignia and foundry mark in relief.

Appraisal

This post box is a good example of mid twentieth-century street furniture possessing a simplicity and clarity of design typical of its time. Its functional nature is enhanced and emphasised by the use of clearly cast capital letters in a simple font.
