Victorian 'Ludlow' style letter box, Lismore Street
This letter box was made by the Eagle Range and Foundry Company of Birmingham, there are very few of its type still in use around the country. Because they have a similar appearance to letter boxes made by James Ludlow & Son (who produced several thousand over 80 years), the small number of examples by other makers are included in the category 'Ludlow boxes' for convenience. Ludlow boxes were designed for use in sub-post offices. For more information see Colne Valley Postal History Museum http://www.cvphm.org.uk/Ludlows.html and Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludlow_wall_box .
The location is at the corner of Lismore Street and Broad Street. Now a private house, there was a sub-post office here for many years. It is marked on old OS maps through from 1901 to 1974-76 https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/340880/555760/12/100685 .

An unusual VR letter box, Lismore Street
For location and some historical background, see Image .
Set in the wall of a former sub-post office. A Ludlow style box, made by the Eagle Range & Foundry Co (probably in the 1880s). For comparison with similar letter box types, there is an excellent gallery at Colne Valley Postal History Museum http://www.cvphm.org.uk/LudlowTour.html . See also Image .
At the bottom of the enamel plaque it says 'NOTICE. Letters which contain COIN if posted as ordinary letters will be charged on delivery with a special registration fee of eightpence'. It probably didn't occur to them to allow for inflation.
Postbox number : CA1 72D.
