Situated in Oakthorpe Road, this TE has the code SMSM and provides telephone and broadband services to 10,863 residential and 623 non-residential premises in Summertown and the surrounding suburbs North of Oxford. The original red-brick building dates from the GPO era, whilst the extension to the left of the photo was added more recently. It is perhaps unfortunate that there is graffiti on the grey door of the new building.
