Sloped

Older than the tree but a replica VR near Durham Cathedral and being tilted by the nearby roots.

Penfold post boxes are distinguished by their hexagonal construction and Acanthus bud surmounting the cap. The original Penfolds were made by Cochrane & Co of Dudley, Worcestershire between 1866 and 1879. Replicas were made by Machan Engineering of Denny, Stirlingshire in 1988–89.

The red post box nicely stands out from the brownish surroundings. Well seen, Laine. V.
