One Of The Oldest

Cuckoo Lane

The letterbox dates back to 1880 and

it says on the sign that it is a rare example

of a Victorian wall box.

It disappoints me that I can't get a shot of this

grand old letter box and The Golden Cross pub without

including that ugly grit/salt box and the

cardboard boxes in the window.  Oh well.

Anyway, have a look at the notice

on the letter box.

Come In & Be Informed

I am impressed.  What a wonderful sense of community to find this telephone box (which I have photographed before) transformed into a 'very' little History & Information Centre.  There are maps, routes to walk and lots of information for the many walkers who pass this way.  Bravo Stretton Under Fosse.

PS. Yes, it rained ALL day!

Blast From The Past - Not many of these couples about these days

The Red Telephone Box is all but gone in England.  What delight to find on the main road through Stretton Under Fosse village, a traditional Phone Box along side a British 'ER' Post Box. PS.  Hope they are both there for many years to come.

Victorian Wall Box at Corley Ash, Warwickshire

This Victorian letter box dates (most likely) back to the 1880's.  Corley Ash is a village located northwest of Coventry.  I wonder how many letters have been posted here.
