| 説明 | Bawdsey Village. IP 12 6316EVIIIR Ludlow Wall Postbox As Edward, Prince of Wales abdicated in November 1936 without ever reaching his coronation, only a handful of post boxes were made carrying his Royal Cipher. Of these, 200 were pillar boxes, 70 were Ludlow wall boxes and just 11 were cast iron wall boxes. Following the Abdication Crisis in late 1936, resentment and bad feeling led to the removal or exchange of many of the doors of these boxes. Today none exists in their original form, save for one Ludlow wall box at Bawdsey in Suffolk. Unfortunately the original enamel plate on this box was stolen and the plate seen on the box today is a modern replica.According to the guidebook of St Mary's church, uniquely the Bawdsey box has the cipher of the King's Crown and initials that appear on no other post-box. |
