Situated in Oakfield Road at the junction with Serpentine Road, this TE, which has the code CMSEL, replaced the TE at 1040 Pershore Road sometime during the 1980s, SP0582 refers http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2949991. However, this building would appear to date from the GPO era, so it may have been used for telephone purposes during that time. It provides telephone and broadband services to 12,129 residential and 441 non-residential premises in Selly Oak, plus Bournville, Lodge Hill and Selly Park nearby. It has 0121-414, 415, 432, 471 and 472 numbers and its postcode is B29 7HW.
