A pair of phone boxes in Hull

On Anlaby Road near West Park. For many years all traditional phone boxes in Hull and its surrounds have been cream-coloured and not the more familiar red. This is because the city's phone company - currently called KCom - has maintained a large measure of independence - separate from BT (British Telecom) for over a century.
