UK Postboxes Topic



I tried again with a better description and it still got called a generic postbox.

As mentioned, it seems to be on single residence private residential property so isn’t eligible

There’s very little possibility of getting these through appeal, there’s a much better chance with general reviewers.

The visual evidence falls on it not being SFPRP.

The brick pillar on which the postbox is embedded is a free-standing one at the front edge of private property, but it doesn’t look like SFPRP because there are three front doors, all sharing the same front yard, and with bins from multiple residences next to each other. If the ground in front of each property was private to that property, the bins wouldn’t be scattered around like that.

@chloboshoka I’d keep trying with new submiission(s) but as @shritwod said, don’t appeal if it gets rejected again.

It’s a tricky one as @elijustrying discussed and I would think most would err on the side of caution and rule as SFPRP


Was kinda hoping id get lucky with this, as this is a rare rype of post box (might have got the amlunt produced wrong jn the appeal), but my guess that nia the appeal staff would reject post boxes was true. Which is a shame cause ive also appealed an edward the … viii, think thats the rare one? And in assuming it will also be rejected. The main annoyance is that i cant get it past emilys checks now

Isn’t that more accurately a “Type G” post box? I don’t think I’ve ever seen one.

Its a type g, carron was the company somits referred to either

Amd yep, fhe king edward one was rejected

Those Edward the VIII are very rare

Had to go dpuble checl my picture and it is defo a viii, so its abit apul destroying to not be able tk get past the ai and even the apleals rejecting it. Slightly more annoying rhat the very firs trime insubmitted it it dkd make it by the ai but it was rejected by the reviewers for incorrext title/description, but i think it was just a bad batch, if i could get by emily i think it would be accepted

I would say if you can get it past Emily it would have an excellent chance.

Could you share the nomination for the ERVIII postbox in case some of us can make suggestions?



The supporting info is roughly the smae and ive tried differing versions of cypher, pillar box and post box
