This 1930's redbrick building is situated in Lexden Road W3 9NZ, and is typical of the TEs that were built in Greater London during that time. It has the code LWACT and provides telephone and broadband services to 14,685 residential and 721 non-residential premises in the Acton area. The words TELEPHONE EXCHANGE can be seen above the entrance door to the left of the TE.
