J5081 : Edward VIII Post Office, Bangor [1]

near to Bangor, Ireland

Edward VIII Post Office, Bangor [1]
Edward VIII Post Office, Bangor [1]
The main Post Office in Bangor is a pleasant building that has not changed much since it opened in 1936.

What makes the Post Office special is the date on which it opened, in 1936 during the short lived reign of King Edward VIII. It is one of only a handful opened during his reign and one of only two with an Edward VIII letter box.

See J5081 : Edward VIII Post Office, Bangor [2] for a picture of the letter box and also J5081 : Edward VIII Post Office, Bangor [3] and J5081 : Edward VIII Post Office, Bangor [4].
