Description
Set into the limestone boundary wall on Warden Law Lane, by the entrance to The Pottery, is a charming traditional red post box. However the way it has been inserted into the wall has resulted in an unsightly area of poorly finished cement mortar which may be causing damage to the surrounding stonework.
