This wall mounted box dates from the reign of Edward VII who was on the throne from 22 January 1901 until his death on 6 May 1910. The earliest Edwardian boxes were modified from the last Victorian designs, of which this is an example, but midway through his reign the elaborate scroll cipher of Edward VII began to appear on post boxes.
