This post stands forlorn, waiting for its services to be needed to proclaim some message as yet unimagined.

This agreeable streamlined building in Penarth, now occupied by a Bangladeshi restaurant, was originally a post office. Above the upper central window is the royal cipher and the date, 1936. It is the cipher of George V, who died that year.
The post office has now moved elsewhere, but the Royal Mail still use the far end of the building, up the flight of steps at the right. Both the building and the smartly painted pillar box are listed.

A Coal Tax post, No. 217, type 1 granite block. Seen on the Thames bank to the West of Dartford Creek at Crayford Ness. This is the most Easterly post.
These were set up around London in the 1860s to collect duties on coal. The tax was payable to the City of London whose influence reached far beyond the square mile. The boundary was the Metropolitan Police area, and is very close to the Greater London boundary today.
In the background the flood barrier on the River Darent.
Here is a picture of a Post Office. What troubles did early Post Offices face, and what did they do to protect themselves?
I was approached by a film company because they wanted to use my Delica while shooting a short film set in the near future.
They asked me to make it look as 'Post Apocalyptic' as possible. I did my best!
Fliming took place in South London on an abandoned/dereclict housing estate. A massive place with 2000+ apartments all empty. Quite eery!
I took these shots just after filming had finished and the crew had gone home. It made for a nice setting.

Log day 9:
"I can't record much anymore...the infected are everywhere...I keep killing, but they keep coming...At least the gun store I got this at has held up well...I've been here for 2 weeks, but...I feel as if I am about to die a very miserable death very soon... "
If I recall right, there was a sixth panel that I wasn't able to photograph.
Here's the artist's obituary from 2003, courtesy of the Associated Press:
Artist Richard Zoellner, known for his New Deal murals, abstract paintings and prints, died Thursday at his home in Tuscaloosa. He was 94.
His work is included in the permanent collections of some major museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art.
A native of Portsmouth, Ohio, Zoellner graduated from the Cincinnati Art Academy. He studied in New York City and Mexico as a recipient of a Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation scholarship.
From 1933 to 1942 he maintained his own studio in Cincinnati and received a number of public and private commissions as part of the U.S. Treasury Section of Fine Arts, part of President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal administration.
His commissions included murals for the U.S. Post Offices in Cleveland, Georgetown, Hamilton, Medina, and Portsmouth, Ohio; and Mannington, W. Va. Other commissions included paintings for U.S. Marine hospitals and murals for the Cincinnati Zoo.
His paintings and sculpture-like prints were known for their energy and vibrant application of color and pattern. He served for 33 years on the University of Alabama's art faculty, retiring in 1978.
In 1992, at 84, he exhibited 15 critically acclaimed new works of art inspired by a trip to the Yucatan peninsula and the architecture of its Mayan ruins.
Survivors include his wife, Willita Skelton Goodson Zoellner; his son, David Zoellner; a stepson, artist Nathan Goodson of Tuscaloosa; and grandchildren.
