The mail on Memorial Road
A standard pillar box stands along with a larger grey unit on Memorial Road. The road was formerly named Pit Road due to the colliery of the early twentieth century. See http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6557673 for a closer look at the result of standing under a tree.

A fallen private
This grave contains the mortal remains of a number of members of the Harrison family. But the one that stands out is the war grave to a Private W.G. Harrison of the Devonshire Regiment. He died in France as the regiment pushed on and is recorded as the 11th November, 1918! Did he really lose his life in the few hours before the armistice or is the date a mere administrative quirk?

An old stone post out on its own
The familiar roadside furniture on Memorial Road also has an older stone post, typical of gateposts of the past. Perhaps this one should have been removed as there is no other to pair it with. In the not too distant past the area was fairly rural, although it is not far from the (now lost) Hanham Colliery.
