This hexagonal Victorian postbox is of the 'Penfold' design which is probably the best known design pre the standard cylindrical pillar box. It is currently out of service because of improvement works to the area above the Market – I am in fact looking through the fence by which the area is cordoned off. A temporary replacement box (of modern design) has been provided a few yards away. The Guildhall on Gaol Hill is in the background.
