These lovely Victorian postboxes always remind me of Penny Blacks and of the good old bad old days when BT, the Post Office and the Royal Mail were all one integrated organisation and telephones had dials and every little village had a Post Office where you could buy your wireless licence and there were (at least) two postal deliveries every day except Sundays. Hmmmm, nostalgia ain't what it used to be. The location of this postbox is shown in Image
