We have lost a lot of phone boxes, but many are now listed buildings, and even if they don’;t hold a phone they are still there to admire. Some are used as small shops, libraries, juke boxes, and most common are defibrillators
Now that’s a good question. I don’t know as was too busy with camera. I was actually outside the box shooting through 2 pieces of glass. Chances are it wasn’t.
Actually, looking at other photos I took, it does seem to be a working phone box. Quite rare, as I think defibrillators are now more common than actual phones

Love these Debbie. I cant remember the last time I saw a phone box (that wasn’t being used as a shed in someone’s garden).

Repurposing!! That’s what I like to hear. I believe I’ve seen a couple being used as little free libraries here too 😀

And was the phone working? Can’t say I’ve noticed phone boxes with phones in in London myself

I thought she’d spotted you in that first shot, but as you were hiding behind the phone box… 🙂 🙂 That’s a pretty good shot through all that glass!
