Taken from Hamilton Terrace, this photo shows the TE behind the block of flats in Hall Road. It serves parts of Maida Vale and St John's Wood, and used to have CUNningham and LORds telephone numbers until the late-1960s. CUNningham took its name from Cunningham Place off St John's Wood Road, whilst LORds took its name from the famous Lord's Cricket Ground in the same road. This TE now has 0207-266, 286 and 289 numbers, plus some Inner London numbers.
