Description

Wall Letter Box. Designed in 1857 by Smith and Hawkes of Birmingham. The boundary wall in which the wall letter box is inserted is of lesser interest.

MATERIALS: cast-iron, painted red.

DESCRIPTION: a standardised design with a moulded and panelled front. To the top is a horizontal aperture with the words ‘POST OFFICE’ above and ‘LETTER BOX’ below. The original inward-opening flap appears to have been removed. The panel below has the Royal Cypher of Queen Victoria above the words ‘CLEARED AT’, and a modern collection plate has been bolted beneath. The central panel forms the door, and the bottom panel is blind.
