Wyberton: Pincushion Post Office
This post office unusually derives its name from a pub nearby - Image The office replaced one more traditionally named Wyberton in around 1950 - the reason for the renaming is perhaps lost in the mists of time.
Pincushion Post Office was located in Granville Avenue, nearby, until 9 September 2016 when it moved into this Spar shop in Parthian Avenue. The postbox has been moved here from Granville Avenue too - it is almost certainly the same box as it is a fairly rare Type L box (see Image).

Wyberton: postbox № PE21 11, Parthian Avenue
This postbox is outside Pincushion Post Office and is an example of the fairly rare 'Type L' postbox. It is a fatter version of the more common 'Type M' box (see Image for an example of the latter).
The box has been moved here from the previous location of the post office - for more discussion see Image
