K6 telephone kiosk (and volunteer 'models') on the corner of Ashwood Avenue and Falkland Road. Hull's telephone company, now Kingston Communications, never joined the national telecommunications industry and as a result installed cream telephone boxes when the rest of the country had red ones. Perhaps as a result of this statement of individuality, Hull still had a reported 239 of the iconic K series telephone kiosks operating in 2006.
