Thanks for adding these. If you manage to get a close look at the postboxes, maybe you could add their reference to the ref= tag as well?

Hi Ginaro. Will do. I'm quite new to this and was simply copying previously added local postboxes. Having looked at others in Glasgow and Edinburgh, I see, for example, ref G31 23 and ref G31 311. I get that the 'G31' is the first part of the post code, but do the '2' and '311' refer to unique reference numbers which I will find on the post boxes?

Sorry, that should have read, "but do the '23' and '311' refer to unique reference numbers which I will find on the post boxes?"

No worries, your edits look good :)
There should be an FK7 xxx reference number at the bottom of the post boxes.
Here's an example of a fully tagged post box https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4543493877 - click on the tags on the left to go the Wiki page for more info on them.
Also, this site matches post box data from Royal Mail and OSM: http://robert.mathmos.net/osm/postboxes/progress/FK/FK7/ - useful for finding where other one should be.
