Number 1829 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.
As you will see from the information near to the letter box, this used to be sited at RAF Swinderby, initially being installed in 1941 near the NAAFI building. RAF Swinderby closed in 1993 and in May 1998, the box was presented and installed at Newark Air Museum.
