This is my 2000th submission to GeoGraph, and it's nothing more exciting than this wall mounted post box on the corner of Pit Farm Road and Cranley Road. Postboxes dating from the reign of George V do not contain the roman numeral V, probably because the Post Office weren't expecting a George VI, but history decreed otherwise.
