Small observation most of the post boxes in those pics are VR (Victorian) I wonder how many are still left. We have a rare, small, wall mounted Edward VIII one around the corner from us

Amazing photos .......... which I found particularly interesting as my late mum was born in 1929 :thankyou:

I went to Clovelly in Devon last year which is pictured numerous times and it still looks exactly the same !!
