Situated on the A40 Oxford Road, this TE is built of Cotswold stone and rather resembles a small Victorian school. It has the code SMBRD and provides telephone and broadband services to 1,299 residential and 128 non-residential premises in Burford, plus Asthall, Fulbrook, Holwell, Swinbrook, Taynton and Westwell nearby. A yellow grit salt bin can be seen in front of this TE. Incidentally, this photo was taken using a zoom lens so as not to encroach onto BT's property from the main road.
