A very rare postbox dating from the short reign of King Edward VIII in 1936. Despite this being one of the few surviving artifacts dating from his reign, and one of only a very small number of Edward VIII postboxes in Birmingham, this example is in a poor state and could badly do with a repaint. Postbox number:- B31 745. Post code:- B31 3**. Last collection:- 4 p.m. Monday to Friday; 11.45 a.m. Saturday. The box is located near the corner of Middlemore Road and Wychall Road.
