Description
This is a pillar box located to the south of the junction with Cleevelands Drive in Cheltenham, built between 1866 and 1879. It was designed by J.W. Penfold and manufactured by the Cochrane Grove Company of Dudley. The pillar box is made of cast iron and has a hexagonal shape, featuring elaborate leaf-decorated cresting and the lettering 'VR'. Cheltenham is home to eight of the 64 remaining Penfold-type Victorian pillar boxes in the country. Other examples can be found in Bayshill Road, College Lawn, Duoro Road, Lansdown Road, Montpellier Walk, Pittville Circus Road, and St Paul's Road. This pillar box forms a good group with the K6 Telephone Box located to the south of the junction with Cleevelands Drive.
