Dist:0.3km<br/>This Elizabeth II-reign postbox is of a design more commonly found mounted on a post or strapped to a telegraph pole, but in this case it has been set into a brick pillar on the corner of St. John's Road, along which we are looking. It is emptied finally at 5:30pm on weekdays and at noon on Saturdays.

Dist:0.3km<br/>This Victorian postbox stands outside a terrace of shops which curves around the corner of Wimborne and Jolliffe Roads, known as Tatnam Crescent, whose frontages are rather cluttered with parked cars just now. There was a post office here, named Heckford Park, until the 1970s. The postbox receives its final daily collections at 5:30pm on weekdays and at noon on Saturdays.

Dist:0.3km<br/>This part of Poole, known as Heckford Park, is characterised by narrow streets of terraced housing. With modern-day traffic levels, it has been necessary to block some of the roads off and make others one-way streets, especially since few of the houses have off-road parking. Bottom-right can be seen [[1636107]].

Dist:0.3km<br/>Sterte Esplanade does not conjure up the usual image of a waterside thoroughfare – the land to the left was reclaimed at least 25 yaers ago. It has been reclaimed farther out in more recent years and the A350 main road to Poole port from the M4 runs between us and Holes Bay.
