Royal Mail Letter Boxes in Buxton

For more than one hundred and fifty years, the Post Office has been serving the inhabitants of Buxton with the collection of their letters from a variety of Letter Boxes placed around the town.

Among them are these three types of Letter Box, each originating from the reigns of Queen Victoria - Dale Road. King Edward VII - Market Place. Queen Elizabeth II - Silverlands.

Although these are basically all the same shape, a close examination will show that there are many differences between them.
