The Curiosity Shop
Next to the Curiosity Shop on Commercial Brow at the corner with Clarendon Road is a George V postbox which may be one of the oldest postboxes in Hyde.
I've been informed that the shop used to be an off-licence with a post office next door, hence the reason the post box is there. As the photo shows the post office has now been converted into a house. On the other side of the post office was a greengrocers.

GR Postbox SK14 23
This postbox outside the Curiosity Shop on Commercial Street Image has a GR royal cipher dating it to the reign of George V. It is possibly the oldest mailbox in Hyde. The plate indicates that the last collection made from the box is at 5.45 pm which is only 15 minutes before the last collection at Hamnett Street sorting office which is at least 5 minutes away in a car and probably 20 minutes on foot. Last collection on Saturdays is at 11 am.
