Situated on the A240 Ewell Road, this building, which rather resembles a police station, was formerly a Manual TE until the 1960s when automatic working and Subscriber Trunk Dialling were introduced. It serves Surbiton plus Berrylands and Tolworth nearby. BT warning notices and vertical drainpipes can be seen on each side of this building. The postcode of this TE is KT6 6AB.
