VR Wall Box Newbury: Easton - RG20 8.

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 RG20 8 and can be found at the entrance to Easton Lodge in Easton near Newbury.  For some reason the collection plate was missing when we found it.

It was spotted by Karen on 31 January 2019.
