George V postbox on Wellington Road North


In June I showed you a wall postbox from the reign of Victoria. In July I showed you a lamp postbox from the reign of Elizabeth II. In August I showed you a cylinder pillar box from the reign of George VI.

This month I'm showing you another pillar box from the reign of George V. It is on Wellington Road North and is inscribed at the base with the name of the manufacturers:
CARRON COMPANY
STIRLINGSHIRE

A contribution to Ruby Tuesday and Our World Tuesday.

    How neat to see the different eras of post boxes!
    Our ER boxes disappeared many years ago (in the 70s, I believe)
