Dover: unusual Victorian/George V postbox in St. Radigund?s Road
This is a particularly unusual postbox, as the main body is Victorian (or possibly from the early years of Edward VII), while the door is from the reign of George V, as clearly denoted by his GR cipher.
The telltale sign is the fact that the door is not full-height. Victorian and early Edward VII boxes had the slot in this position, flanked by the words POST and OFFICE, above the top of the door. Midway through Edward VII's reign, the design was modified so that the door was full-height, incorporating the slot within it. This prevented posted items from getting stuck in the top of the box.
It is therefore the case that the GR door is nonstandard; by the time of George V a short door would have no reason to be in ordinary supply.
The GR cipher and keyhole are also higher than on a standard George V box, almost reaching the information plate. Compare with examples of the two standard layouts:

The absence of the standard POST OFFICE below the cipher is also notable, and also the absence of the door-pull which is standard on George V boxes.
Attached to the box, and arguably not enhancing its appearance, is a modern fibreglass pouch box or drop box - see below.
