Here's a fun London curiosity: a postbox which has become part of a plane tree.
The postbox bears the cipher of Edward VII, so it was placed here in Drayton Gardens between 1901 and 1910. That has given it well over a century to get closer than intended to the tree behind it.

The postbox is a bit rusty but still operational. Royal Mail have obviously accepted the inevitable, since the postbox is clearly just painted up to the bark.
