George V postbox, near Ganghill, London Road, Burpham, Guildford
The setting makes it look like a rural postbox, but in fact it's by the busy London Road (the A3100), near the entrance to Ganghill. The box dates from the reign of King George V (1910-1936). The Royal Cipher is very stark, and does not contain the Roman numeral V, whereas George VI boxes always have a VI in the cipher. This box was made by the Carron Company of Stirlingshire, whose name is in the black painted area, at the bottom of the box. The box in situ:- Image
Postbox number:- GU1 180. Post code:- GU1 1**. Last collection is 5.15 pm Monday to Friday, 12.15 pm Saturday.

Ornamental feature at entrance to Ganghill, Burpham, Guildford
This is not a bus shelter, or even a smoking shelter, but is an ornamental feature on one side of the entrance to the private estate road Ganghill. It's not really a gazebo, as it's not open on all sides. On the other side is an identical structrure, which can be glimpsed here:- Image
