Detail of an access cover for telephone cables located on Railway Street, Dunmurry. Marked "GPO" (General Post Office), these are still relatively common, although this example uses a type face I have not seen before and appears to be older than most. If anyone knows what the letters and numbers refer to I'd love to know.
