gpo[23] / O&S[SF] - VR wall post box

Wall mounted post box at "The George", Chollerford.

From the VR it dates from pre-1902 ... so is an antique and still in daily use.
Some people "walking the wall" [Hadrian's Wall Trail" drop off progress report post-cards in it, in addition to their phones !

Interesting that it is part of a building which has nothing to do with postal services.

Something that is not uncommon in rural areas, to be honest.
.
Additionally, The George is located at a road junction [and at one end of a bridge over the River North Tyne].

It's surprising how many 'Victoria' ones are still in use, there won't be much need for King Charles ones I expect a few will be made as a token gesture

Nice to see, I ended up doing a series of the older boxes, once seen, I couldn't stop seeing :)
