I visited this lovely box the other day and was disappointed that I couldn't get any closer; and to see how it was being used. I shall have to return once the construction is completed!
St Martin's Le Grand, City of London
Notes
A plaque attached to the postbox states: The Penfold Postbox Designed by John Penfold in 1866. This postbox was unveiled by Their Hignnesses The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall on 6th September 2016.
