Three images from my walk this morning. There’s something quite interesting about one of them I’d not noticed before ;-)

Nice pics both

My V R is by the steam railway and I wondered if it’s been there forever or if it’s ‘relatively new’

I knew I wasn’t going past a Royal Mail box today but there was this nice private one (not the best quality photo as zoomed in)

Post box, on a post.



Box on a post.
(As a postie in years past, we used boxes *like* these to store extra mail bags in to extend a round. Either that, or garages, Ernie's shed, local cafes etc...)



Stamps might be needed.

I remember when you could buy a book of stamps from a stamp machine. There was always an annoying low face value stamp left over (which they needed to put in to make the cost of the book a nice round 10 pence or whatever).

I think there were also machines that issued stamps in a row from a coil of stamps.

I wonder which yours was, CotH?
