Broadstone: postbox № BH18 39, York Road
The reason for having such a large postbox here is that it was once outside Hillbourne Post Office, a few doors up on the opposite side of the road. It was moved here doubtless after the post office closed (in 2004). It is an Edward VII-reign specimen and its last collection times are 5:15pm on weekdays and 12:15pm on Saturdays.

Broadstone: postbox № BH18 210, Lytchett Drive
The square of tarmac at the bottom of this postbox appears to be rather new, while the box has caused a small piece to be cut out of the presumably even newer fence.
The box is emptied finally at 4pm on weekdays and at 11:45am on Saturdays.
