Iconic Phone Boxes
These two red K6 phone boxes designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott have stood in St. Peters Square since the 1950’s. They were initially located on Library Walk, between the Library Theatre and Town Hall Extension. In 2013 they were temporally remove to be fully restored to working order and returned in 2014 to the location where they now stand; Central Library in the background. They were removed as part of plans to transform St. Peter’s square. The boxes are protected after being given listed status by English Heritage. They now stand empty, phones removed, vandalised and the doors welded shut; so much for their listed status. But they are so iconic that hundreds of people still take pictures of them and are quite often used in wedding photographs; even in this poor state. As they stand today they are completely covered in stickers and look a horrible mess so I have tried to clean them up slightly in PS.
