Colne Valley Postal History Museum

A privately owned Postal History Museum in the heart of East Anglia. The collection has been built up over a number of years by one man and now comprises 100 ex-British Post Office letter boxes together with 19 Stamp Vending Machines, documents, 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. Regular public open days are held each year, but otherwise there is no general public access other than by prior arrangement with the Curator. Visitors are welcome by prior arrangement at any reasonable time. Contact us at the address above.
