Description

Wall-mounted cast-iron post box, erected c. 1910, on a rubble stone wall forming the boundary wall to Derravoher House, with raised ER VII royal cipher with small crown motif. Saorstat Eireann insignia with harp below. Red brick surround.

Appraisal

An appealing artefact in cast-iron which with its historic interest adds a subtle aesthetic appeal to the area. The juxtaposition of the Edward VII and the Saorstat Eireann insignia highlight its historical interest.
