Description

This is a cast-iron pillar box dating from 1866 to 1877. Designed by JW Penfold and made by the Cochrane Grove Company of Dudley, it stands outside Hammond Court on College Lawn, Cheltenham. The pillar box is of a distinctive hexagonal “Penfold” type, featuring an elaborate crest decorated with leaves and the inscription “VR”.
