The pillar box in the foreground of this shot in the High Street is actually a Penfold Pillar Box dating from about 1870, an historical monument, and is no longer in use (the Post Office is on the other side of the road). However, I did wonder when taking this photo, which was the older, the pillar box or the tree beyond it ;).

    Yes, there are several trees in Hampstead High Street, and a lot more in a large area of heathland to the immediate north and east, called Hampstead Heath, from where you can get a good view of (distant) central London from Parliament Hill :).
