Sherborne: postbox № DT9 2000, Cheap Street
The postbox, which has one slot for franked and one for stamped mail, stands outside Image and follows a curious trend for boxes outside main offices to be numbered 2000, while the other boxes in the neighbourhood tend to be numbered haphazardly but consecutively upwards from 1. It is emptied finally at 6pm on weekdays - unsurprisingly, the latest weekday collection time in town - and at 12:30pm on Saturdays.
An old postbox, incorporated into the fabric of the building, is concealed behind it.
