This enamelled Georgian postbox is located at the now closed Handbridge post office. Research on the internet suggests that this is what is known as a 'Ludlow wall box'. Although not all of this type of box was produced by James Ludlow and son they are by far the most prolific manufacturers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludlow_wall_box See also Image
