Features
PostboxMap is a community-driven map of UK postboxes. It lets you explore postboxes by location and reign (royal cypher), search by town or cypher, and contribute your own finds. The site is built for enthusiasts, local historians, and anyone who wants to document and discover the UK's postal heritage in one place.
Below is an overview of what you can do: browse the interactive map, submit and correct postboxes, earn points and climb the leaderboard, connect with other contributors, and use the public API for your own projects. For a fuller introduction to postboxes and why we map them, see our guide to UK postboxes and our identification guide.
