It was built in 1916 and added to the National Historic Register in 1987. Today it is no longer a post office. Instead it is divided between the city of Attleboro and Bristol County, which use it as office space.

Those undreamt accidents that have made me

Being but a part of ancient ceremony
Notorious, till all my priceless things
Are but a post the passing dogs defile.”
