Situated in Ewell Road (A240), this TE used to have ELMbridge numbers until the late 1960s, there being an Elmbridge Avenue in Surbiton. It now has 0208-390 and 399 xxxx numbers, plus some other Outer London numbers. The extension to this TE can be seen to the left of the photo. Besides providing telephone and broadband services to the locality, this building also caters for amateur boxing as seen by the blue and white board in front of the TE.
