Britain's What's On Event Guide
Colne Valley Postal History Museum
Heritage Open Day: A privately owned Postal History Museum in the heart of East Anglia. Hands-on history for everything post and telephone related! New larger premises for 2025! Housed in the gardens of a large suburban house in the pleasant Essex town of Halstead, the collection has been built up over a number of years by one man and now comprises 165 ex-British Post Office and Overseas Postal Administration letter boxes together with 25 Stamp Vending Machines, documents, bicycles, uniforms and associated artefacts.
The museum houses the second-largest private collection of Post Boxes in the UK and is an invaluable resource for teaching and historical research.
