Natasha Baker gold post box

Erection date: 2012

Inscription

This post box has been painted gold by Royal Mail to celebrate Natasha Baker, Gold Medal winner, London 2012 Paralympic Games, Equestrian: Individual - Championship Test, Grade II.

The Braille is a nice touch (ha, ha) but the plaque, on the back of the box, looks pretty cheap, and cheaply fixed - we won't be surprised if some of these go missing.

UB8, High Street, Uxbridge

The round plaque can be see in our photo on the ground in front of the phone boxes.
