Description

This is a Grade II listed pillar box located in Denmead, known as World's End, dating from around 1860. It is made of cast iron and features a hexagonal head with a cylindrical body. The convex top has a simple pattern and includes a cavetto moulding that contains the letter opening, which is covered by a flap. Below this, there are two bands and a moulding above the wider base. The box is marked with the raised lettering "Cochrane & Co, Woodside Works, Dudley 1859" and is said to have originally been located in London.
