This box was made by BP Walker in Birmingham and is one of the small versions of the 1871-1880 range of wall boxes. This particular style of the small box in the range was made between in 1873 and 1877.
This is our own private box that my wife Karen bought for my 70th birthday and is now in our back garden at Flecknoe in Warwickshire.
It is thought to have been at Cock Yard near Chapel-le-Fritch in Derbyshire. We bought it in 2022 from UKAA reclamations who purchased a job lot of boxes from the Royal Mail.
