Another view of this TE in Dropmore Road showing the entrance door. The words "Telephone Exchange" can be seen to the right of that door, although these days "Telecom Building" would be a more accurate description as it provides telephone and broadband services to the surrounding area. However, it was a manual TE until the 1960s, when the somewhat noisy Strowger switching equipment brought automation to it.
