Description

Wall-mounted cast-iron post box, c.1935, with raised 'P&T' monogram in Gaelic script. Set into painted rendered wall.

Appraisal

An appealing post box making a subtle impression on the visual appeal of the streetscape. The various raised elements enhance the artistic design quality of the piece, while the Gaelic script alludes to the continued promotion of a national identity within the emergent Independent State.
