Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Branksome: postbox № BH13 148, Tower Road West Having photographed most of the postboxes in the Bournemouth area, with help from the Royal Mail's list of boxes, this one was rather vexing. The list is generally pretty good at describing the location, such as the names of two roads on whose corner a box is situated. This one is described on the list as "Temporary box due to bomb damage" which was most unhelpful.

Anyway I solved the riddle after receiving an email from a chap who is in charge of painting Dorset's postboxes and he told me that it would be found here. The 'temporary' box appears to have found a permanent replacement.

The Edward VII-reign postbox is emptied finally at 5:30pm on weekdays and at 12:15pm on Saturdays.
