Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Replica Victorian pillar box outside the Old Town Hall, Carlisle, Cumbria. The first roadside pillar box in mainland Britain was erected in 1853 at Botchergate 812802. The early boxes did not have a standard design, and we have not yet found an illustration of the original one in Carlisle. The box in this photo is a copy of the Penfold design, produced between 1866-79. It is one of many replica Penfolds produced in 1989, to be placed in historic and tourist locations. [1] For details of inscription, see 812820.
