Trying to make the rare post box at the end of my road into a pokestop similar to the one around the corner from the previous king. They are equally rare and deservent of a pokestop but it keeps getting rejected even though I’m following the correct templates to create one it has the same style info…

The boundaries of the property is the hedge but the post box is technically on the pavement, the owners of the house I know personally just have gotten around to trimming the hedge back yet this year. The corner post is public property

Are there any public records that can confirm that? It may help place weight on getting this seen favouribly.

The postbox is on the corner of The Avenue and Balsam Fields on the pavement photographed, the other side the hedge is 5 The Avenue and the grass next to the pavement is maintained by the council so is public property [1000078960] [1000078959] [1000078958]

The public access to the grass and pavement are not relevant. Anything on the boundary of SFPRP is ineligible regardless of the ground alongside it. If this is not SFPRP, you will need to procure solid evidence of this to include in a resubmission.

[1000079173] The GR V one is literally in line with their fence and still has a pokestop [1000079175] Using street view with it trimmed you can see all the brick work clearly

You’ve even got a telegraph pole or lamppost in that hedge. Those aren’t usually on sfprp. The hedge has eaten everything :joy: The post box is further off the property than the post.

Our house has one in the back garden :joy: we’ve manged to claim money for having it there

[1000079179] Would be similar to the with the back of the box against the property line. If not a historically agreement of placement on property however public access

Another completely different argument is that: I’m in the Royal navy and on our bases there are loads of monuments that have been made pokestops and gyms etc, but bases are strictly no public access :rofl:

If you feel there are wayspots that should not be there you can report them.
