Oxley Park

Always plan ahead, like they do in Gregory Street, Oxley Park. You never know when a year’s mail might be delivered all at once.

What African mammal is born under water, is right-footed, sends its faeces up into the air and claims the most human lives in Africa each year? In Petersham, Fishers Reserve (a street, not a park) has the answer.


Plumpton

Flamingo Grove, Fairfield West: The antenna is for air mail and the chimney knows what to do with junk mail.



Potts Point

Darlinghurst Road, Potts Point, must have been inhabited by giants when these mailboxes/letter-boxes were installed in 1861. This one is near an injecting room for drug users at Kings Cross.


Prariewood

Like a well-armed battleship ready to bring down attacking aircraft, Prairiewood’s mail brochures prepare for residents’ approach.
