Silverthorn Telephone Exchange was opened on the 1st of September 1930 and is located on The Ridgeway in Chingford. Although when it was built this section of road was still a part of Old Church Road. The original Chingford Exchange was at 32 Station Road Chingford but was too small to cope with the 800 lines needed at the time.
