World Cup victory at Lord's

Lord's Post Box

To celebrate England winning the World Cup against New Zealand at Lord’s in what has been classed as the ‘greatest cricket game of all time’, Royal Mail is painting 15 Letter Boxes across the country. The first and perhaps most relevant location is on St John’s Wood Road, outside the famous Grace Gates. Your local councillors when contacted about this initiative were fully supportive and attended the unveiled on 16th July just two days after this famous victory.
