West Howe: Winton Delivery Office
The Royal Mail sorting and delivery office is patently not in Winton, but it relocated here in the late 1990s from small premises in Brassey Road, Winton.
It serves the BH9, BH10 and BH11 postcodes, covering the northwest suburbs of Bournemouth including Winton and Kinson, and so this is where you go if you were out when the postman tried to deliver a large item or something needing a signature.
It is open from 8am to 2:15pm weekdays, apart from Wednesday when it has later opening till 8pm, and 8am to 2pm on Saturdays.

West Howe: postbox № BH11 999, Winton Delivery Office
This postbox has been installed outside the public office of
Image It is of a new type, manufactured of stainless steel by Romec, rather than the traditional cast iron boxes.
It was installed at the end of June 2016 and I was told by a postman, when collecting a parcel, that the originally installed box lasted 6 days before it was driven into. (It is at the edge of the delivery yard/car park, so there will naturally be quite a bit of manoeuvring going on hereabouts.)
Presumably that is why this box has been embellished with three strips of fluorescent tape - but the obvious question remains: why didn't they just install it against the wall?
