Lockdown 2, vet practice closed
These veterinary practice premises do not allow customers to enter during coronavirus lockdown but do provide prescription and video consultation online. From the website of Goddard Veterinary Group it appears that their other sites with larger premises do provide for socially-distanced entry.

NHS priority postbox, Horn Lane, Acton
The postbox is near the post office at 214 Horn Lane. The "NHS priority postbox" sign indicates that coronavirus test samples can be posted for special collection. The "Priority postbox Saturday and Sunday" indicates collection on those days. A Royal Mail website can be searched by postcode to find nearby post boxes, and show the collection times. Not all priority postboxes have week-end collections. The postbox has a GR cypher for George V, and has wording "Post Office" near the bottom.
