Located at 2 Chadwick Road, this TE used to have ILFord and TREvelyan numbers until the late 1960s. It now has 0208-478, 514 and 553 numbers, plus some other Outer London numbers. The words "TELEPHONE EXCHANGE" can be seen above the entrance, although "Telecom Building" perhaps would be a more modern description. A red car can be seen parked in front of the words "NO PARKING" below one of the lower windows. The postcode of this TE is IG1 1BX.
