Amongst the motley collection of street furniture on view here the postbox seems to be suffering from advanced psoriasis, Royal Mail Engineering please take note! As ever "Abbotts" Avenue will generate complaints that it should be "Abbots". Indeed a Google search for "St Albans" and "Abbotts Avenue" currently gets 102 hits while the same combo with "Abbots" gets 844, and the Royal Mail, the Ordnance Survey and Streetmap all have Abbots. However the street name plate on the road has "Abbotts" so "Abbotts" it is!
