The actual post box is more or less immaterial. I just didn't have one of my own photos to hand.
The post box concerned is just opposite Norfolk Road, on Craufurd Rise just before the railway bridge and next to a substation. It is certainly not the one in the photos which you link to, and indeed doesn't seem to be on OSM (probably got lost during the license change).
