Lerwick: postbox № ZE1 65, Gilbert Bain Hospital
This lovely little wooden postbox stands just inside the main entrance of the Gilbert Bain Hospital. It would seem that it was originally a private facility made available to visitors, but has then been adopted into official service by Royal Mail - the notice below the slot reads:
THIS IS A PRIVATE POSTING BOX
LETTERS AND PACKETS POSTED IN IT WILL BE TREATED IN ALL RESPECTS AS POST LETTERS, BUT PROOF OF SUCH POSTING WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED IN LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AS EVIDENCE OF RECEIPT BY THE ADDRESSEE - By order of the Postmaster General.
It now has a proper information plate telling us that,like all boxes in Lerwick, there are two weekday 'final collection' times, one for off-islands next-day delivery (11:30am) and one for Shetland items (5:15pm). The single advertised Saturday collection is 3:15pm.

Lochside Stores, Lerwick
How this small general shop has survived, within sight of Lerwick's main supermarket (currently owned by Tesco), is something of a mystery to me.
