St. Columcille's House, Kells, Co. Meath. I didn't think it was a church. The door was in the wrong place, normally they would have been on a gable end, wouldn't they? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Columb%27s_House And here's a more up to date shot. www.pinterest.es/pin/222435669068993270/

Thomas Taylour, 1st Earl of Bective, (1724 - 1795) - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Taylour,_1st_Earl_of_Bective - erected this thing in 1791 in memory of his father, Sir Thomas Taylor, 2nd Baronet (1686–1757). It's complicated ! - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marquess_of_Headfort

Is it a collection box for the sick and poor of the parish. If it was a post box it would have the reigning monarchs (when commissioned) emblem.

John Walton (51) Thanks John! Could it be Old Pensioners on the top line? Pensioners in the military sense, as this would probably be pre-Old Age Pension.
