This Edward VII-reign postbox stands close to the Ringwood Road/Longfleet Road junction, diagonally opposite the Shah of Persia pub, and is emptied finally at 5:30pm on weekdays and at noon on Saturdays. The traffic lights are out of order – whether due to roadworks or to malfunction I don't know – and are currently replaced by four-way temporary lights, causing slight delays on all approaches. Hence the traffic cone in the middle of the road, blocking off the right-turn lane.
