Prince Albert Road, City of Westminster
Notes
--- I had noticed that and, somewhere in the dark recesses of my mind, I seem to recall I reported it to Historic England, as it was a "listed building". However, I just noticed that if you go to the postbox listing and scroll down towards the bottom, there is a button named "Street View" just to the right of the "Get Directions" button. Click on the "Street View" button and, as if by magic, it has reverted to a Penfold in the September 2025 imagery. Better still, if you click on the "See more dates" link at the top left, you get to see the postbox for different years (along the bottom). If you go to 2014... the box is gone then and is replaced by a round box until 2019 when the Penfold reappears!!! Pleased to say that neither of us are going mad!!!
