This is a standard Royal Mail post box except that it's been painted gold to celebrate the 20120 Olympic Gold that Andy Murray won. For sure it's not the most amazing thing in the world to see, but it's pretty cool and a great thing to get a selfie with.

At the corner of Bridgend and Stirling Road, just below the Bridgend sign is a horseshoe fixed to the wall. This was from Queen Victoria's horse when she passed through Dunblane. Her horse threw a shoe and the local blacksmith reshod her horse. The horseshoe was fixed to the wall on honour of this event. It is still there with a plaque below. It's a strange item and a quirky part of Dunblane history.
