Court Close is unusual for a little cul-de-sac, in having its very own postbox at the dead end – perhaps installed specifically for Purewell Court, in front of which it stands. The number of the postbox – 401 – maybe suggests a relatively recent addition to the network. The box is emptied at 9 o'clock each morning except Sunday – far earlier than any other box in the area.
