Selected Dates

Join us for a special behind the scenes tour of the BPMA museum collection store. Highlights include a fleet of postal service vehicles illustrating the long history of moving the mail, and over 50 pillar boxes of different types, from one of the first boxes trialled in the UK to modern designs and prototypes.

Visitors will enjoy two 30-minute curator-led tours, separated by a break and complimentary refreshments, followed by time at the end of the visit for self-led exploration of the collection. Please note that each 30 minute tour will involve standing for this time.
