This Elizabeth II-reign (pre-1994) postbox is strapped to a concrete post and emptied at noon on weekdays and at 9am on Saturdays. The name Rexe's Hollow Lane is a bit of an inconsistency - it is Rex's Lane on large-scale mapping including my street atlas, while the street sign gives Rexes Hollow Lane. The OS 1:25,000 map does give Rexe's Hollow as a name for the route, giving the slightly surprisingly positioned possessive apostrophe.
