Description: Here is the postbox in context, outside Newman House. The poet Gerard Manley Hopkins was a professor here at Newman's Catholic University. Maybe he posted some of his poems to his friend and editor Robert Bridges (at one time the Poet Laureate of England) using the postbox. The entrance to Newman's church is the red brick building on the right. No. 85 St. Stephen's Green, built 1738, is the smaller house on the left, and No. 86 on the right was built in 1765. An interesting history of both houses can be read here: irishartsreview.com/irisartsreviyear/pdf/1994/20492775.pd... James Joyce also went to University College here
