VR Wall Box Boscastle: High Street - PL35 73

This box was made by Smith & Hawkes in Birmingham and was known as a Box No. 2.  These were one of the earliest boxes, being made in 1859 or 1860.   This one still has its letter flap which is quite unusual.

It is box number PL35 73 and can be found near the junction of Fore Street and High Street in Boscastle, Cornwall.

It was spotted by Peter Williams on 3 August 2020.
