Georgian box on Beckett's Lane
The lane was once the only route through a particularly rural part of the countryside. A Georgian postbox is set in a wall that bounded the few houses that used to be here; these days it is all but surrounded by post-war housing estates. See

Beckett's Lane was blocked off
Once this road was the only one worth noting, but when modern Nailsea grew rapidly in the post-war housing boom a new road (Queen's Road) was built right across it. The powers decided to block Beckett's to motor traffic.
See
Image] for a look at the postbox in the wall.
