A Fine Pair # 1251 ~ Alverton Traditional Cache

Number 1251 in a series of caches where a red telephone box is in close proximity to a post box.

The only rules are that they have to be able to be photographed together, be not more than 100’ apart and the phone boxes have to be red.

The letter box is a rarer type of wall box from the reign of Queen Victoria. There are only 35-50 types of this particular box left in the UK. Although not in the best condition, note the hole rusted in the hood, it is 150 years old! Not bad for a box that is cleared 6 times a week!
