VR Wall Box Brackley: Biddlesden - Out of use

This box was made by WT Allen of London and is one of the small size versions of the 1881-1901 range of wall boxes which was the last range of wall boxes made in the Victorian era.  This particular style of the small size box in the range was made between 1886 and 1901  and has a modified aperture.  During the 1950s and 1960s some boxes had their aperture modified to take larger letters and the hood on these apertures didn't have the words 'POST OFFICE' cast on them.

It is no longer in use and is in NN13 and can be found on the wall of the entrance to Biddlesden House in Biddlesden near Brackley, Buckinghamshire.

It was spotted by Neil on 17 January 2019.
